Born on August 28, 1959, in Jacksboro, Texas, to Thermon and Billie (Smith) Stark, Jack lived a life full of hard work, laughter, and love. He spent most of his career in the oilfield industry, working for companies such as A-1 Well Service, Waco Tank Trucks, Energy Service Company, S & V Well Service, Bowie Industry, and Bowie ISD. Jack was also an entrepreneur at heart, proudly owning and operating Stark Tank Trucks, Stark Roustabout Service, JL&R Pump Trucks, and offering private consulting.
Jack was more than his work; he was a man who loved deeply and gave generously. He cherished time with his family and friends, whether hunting, fishing, golfing, playing tennis, cooking, or traveling. Jack was famous for his crab and shrimp boils and his mouthwatering ribs, always bringing people together around the table. He took great pride in his home and property, making sure everything was in pristine condition.
Jack is preceded in death by his parents, Thermon and Billie Stark.
He leaves behind a legacy of love through his children: Mendy Jones and husband Ben; Justin Stark and wife Jenn; Stacey Simpson and husband Nick; and Sheldyn Stark and husband BJ; along with seven treasured grandchildren: Kaydee, Conner, Tucker, Jax, Lincoln, Maverick, and Noah. Jack is also survived by Stacey Stark, who lovingly cared for him until the end, five siblings; Jim Stark and wife Carla, Brenda Makings and husband Jim, Larry Stark and wife Cindy, Ralph Stark and wife Jeanie, Judy Parker and husband Randy, and many dear friends and extended family who will miss his warmth and humor.
Should friends desire, in lieu of flowers, memorials can be made in honor of Jack to the Lighthouse Youth Group.
Arrangements are entrusted to White Family Funeral Home of Bowie, Texas.
