Obituary
John B. (Jack) Mannon, age 72, of Sun City Center, Florida, passed away on Tuesday, July 2, 2019 at Life Path Hospice House in Sun City Center.
Jack was born on September 16, 1946 in Peoria, Illinois to Frank and Grace (Parrish) Mannon. Alongside his sister, Bonnie Miller and brothers, Jim and Rob, he grew up in Sparland.
He married his beloved wife and best friend, Bettielou Willman, on March 12, 1966 in Sparland and they had 53 wonderful years together. She survives, as well as their children, Missy (David) Senn of Tuscaloosa, Alabama and John (Kelly) of Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin, seven grandchildren, his sister, Bonnie Miller of Lacon, his brothers, Jim (Vicki) Mannon of Sparland and Rob (Deb) Mannon of Lacon and several nieces and nephews. Jack was preceded in death by his parents.
Jack joined the Army and served his country honorably during the Vietnam War. Jack was employed by Caterpillar for over 40 years last working in Logistics. He loved working with youth as his children grew and was actively involved in Rome Youth Activities. He coached many teams and served as RYA's president. Jack also loved golf. He was involved with junior golf programs, a member and board member at Arrowhead Country Club and Lacon Country Club and played as often as possible.
After retiring, he was a member of Renaissance Golf Club in Sun City Center, Florida. He also volunteered at the Veteran's Administration driving veterans from Sun City Center to medical appointments at the Veteran's Hospital in Tampa. Jack served on the Board of Directors of the Fairview Homeowner's Association and later on the Estates at Lake View Homeowner's Association. He and Bette loved golfing, traveling and cruising.
Funeral services with military honors will be held on Friday, July 19 at the Sarasota National Cemetery in Sarasota, Florida. A reception will follow at Club Renaissance in Sun City Center. Memorial contributions may be made to Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Florida (moffitt.org/give) or Life Path Hospice at Sun City, 3725 Upper Creek Dr, Sun City Center, FL 33573.
Jack was a loving husband, a wonderful father and a great friend. He will be sorely missed by many.
