Jack Walter Russenberger, 19, passed away Saturday February 28, 2026. Jack attended Bigelow High School before being accepted and transferring to The Arkansas School for Mathematics, Sciences, and the Arts (ASMSA). It was at ASMSA where Jack explored his passion for computer science and discovered his love of Japan and Japanese culture. Jack travelled to Japan during school to study abroad and after graduation to explore the country and immerse himself in the culture. After graduating from ASMSA, Jack was accepted into the Honors Program at UCA. Jack was majoring in computer science and minoring in Japanese. In his free time, Jack enjoyed skateboarding and developing and playing video games with his friends and brothers. He also enjoyed blacksmithing using his homemade forge. His love of listening to different kinds of music translated to him picking up the guitar and always wanting to play a song for whoever would listen. With his many hobbies and interests, Jack made every day exciting, and there was never a dull moment in his presence.

Jack was the youngest of four brothers, however, the years between all of them have never made a difference in the bond that will always be shared by them. Though he is not with us anymore, his place in their brotherhood will remain present through the memories and love they have shared and will continue to share with each other.

In his early years, Jack spent quite a lot of time with his Mimi and PawPaw. His PawPaw was his best friend from day one and planted the seed for Jack’s love of food a
