Jack Lee Hobbs, 83, passed away August 10, 2014 peacefully at home. He was born December 4, 1930 to Charles and Ethel Hobbs. He married Valerie Dana on August 4, 1950 in Ogden, Utah and they were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple December 16, 1960.
Jack was a convert to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He faithfully served in many callings over the years, but loved sharing the gospel as a stake missionary.

Jack worked at Boeing, IRS, and HAFB. He loved old cars, collecting coins, hunting, fishing and golfing.
He overcame leukemia and a heart attack to be with us 31 years longer than the doctors thought he would. He was a loving husband, wonderful father and everyone's friend.
