Jack L. Montgomery

Jack L. Montgomery, age 87, passed away Saturday, October 16, 2021, in Milledgeville, GA after a brief hospital stay, with his loving family by his side.

Jack was born in Core, WV on February 26, 1934, to John and Ione (Carpenter) Montgomery. He moved to New Castle, PA at a young age and graduated from Union Area High School in 1951. He proudly served in the United States Navy from 1951-1955 and retired from a long career with AT&T in 1997.

Jack was a hardworking family man that enjoyed entertaining at his lake house, hunting, and reading. Jack also appreciated a good road trip and took many as he traveled back and forth from GA to PA several times a year.

He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Ione, his first wife Judith Montgomery, sister Annetta Boron and most recently his son Sean Montgomery.

He leaves behind to cherish his memory, his wife Arlene Montogmery, his children Cheryl (Bill) Teaford and Heidi (Allen) Brock, grandchildren Connor Brock, Seth Montgomery, Amber Montogomery, and Timothy Vess, great-granddaughter Courtney Vess.

“Pappy Jack” will also be greatly missed by his stepchildren Ella (Richard) Quinn, Robert Kalajainen, and Heidi Fair. As well as a host of step-grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

He will forever be remembered as an easy conversationalist, with a great sense of humor and laughter that could light up a room.

A Memorial will be planned at a later date.
