Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.

Jack & Jackie have & will always be difference makers in the countless lives they have touched. It was definitely true for Fran & me back in the early seventies. As new believers in Christ, we were always encouraged to be "real" because of Jack/Jackie's "walk & talk." Grateful to have been challenged in attempting to model the humble, gracious, giving spirit so wondrously portrayed in this talented man of God. Thank you Lord Jesus for allowing me to see you more clearly in the life of Jack.

The Copas family offers our deepest sorrow and condolences for Jack and his family. He was always such a wonderful man with a delightful family. I went to school with his son, Joe Stevens and my sister went to school wit Jim Stevens. We were always thick as thieves. He was so kind to all of us and three years ago when I was living on Longley Road, he helped my corral and rope my burro and drive him all down the road to my house. Heaven gained an angel!!! Mr. Stevens made the world a better place. He will be missed.

Prayers for The Stevens Family

With Mr. Stevens' passing, you, the community, and the art world have lost a living legend. I never got to know Mr. Stevens personally, but he and my dad were friends before my dad passed away. Daddy always spoke so highly of Mr. Stevens and enjoyed all the time he got to spend with him. I am fortunate to have inherited the two bronzes that were my dad's - "First Kill" and "Future Winners". They are prized by all of my family.
My thoughts and prayers are will all of you.
