Jack Minor Wiley (78) passed away on November 27, 2024. He was born in Woodbridge, Virginia. He is proceeded in death by his beautiful wife Sharon, whom he was married to for 33 years before her untimely passing in 2015. He was a wonderful father and husband. He leaves behind one daughter, Jennifer Wiley, whom he adored, and two pugs, Simone and Suzy, "his pups". He has one sister Joyce Lowry, other family, and many nieces and nephews. Jack worked on the Railroad for many years before becoming disabled then ultimately retiring. He was always smiling and laughing. He could talk for hours. He had a love for all things Western and Old School Cars, particularly a 1954 Ford F-100 Truck and 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS. A private memorial service will be held in December.
