Jack Dennis Cornelison, age 61, of Acworth, passed away on Sunday, April 3, 2016.
Jack was the type of person who was family oriented and loved his wife, his children, and his grandchildren. He enjoyed his family trips to Ellijay where they would pick the freshest apples from the apple houses. His immediate family shared their birthdays within almost a month of each other and Jack would be sure to bake everyone their own elaborate cake to celebrate - one of his specialties was his triple chocolate brownie cake.
Jack also enjoyed fishing, playing his guitar and banjo, collecting and reading the "Peanuts" comic strip, maintaining and collecting coins, and sharing a joke to keep everyone laughing. He probably would've spent every day doing these activities if he could have.
Jack was a hard worker and was quite a dedicated employee. He worked as a career meat market manager at Battle's Food from the age of 12 until his late 40's when the company had closed. After that, he worked as a maintenance worker for the Cobb County Board of Education for 17 years until retiring only weeks ago.
