It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Mr. Jack Lilley, an esteemed member of our community. Born on August 14, 1933, Jack transitioned into eternal rest on March 19, 2025. He was a bridge that brought friends and family together, a beacon of kindness and generosity whose presence profoundly shaped the lives of those around him.

Jack was predeceased by his beloved wife, Irene Lilley, and is warmly remembered by his loved ones, who survives him. Three sons, five grandchildren, and 6 great grandchildren. His spirit continues to live on in the hearts of his family, friends, and all those whose lives were touched by his one of a kind character.

Throughout his life, Jack accomplished many notable achievements, including earning places in the Western Walk of Stars and receiving the prestigious Silver Spur Award. However, he always insisted that his greatest accomplishment was the legacy he left behind. His firm belief was that, "Your legacy is what you leave," a sentiment he embodied through his enduring acts of kindness and love.
