George Jacques

George Jacques

The most incredible human passed away Friday May 13 2022, George Leroy Jacques.

Many people know our Dad, and to most, he was considered not just a great friend but family. He always knew someone everywhere he went. He worked at the car parts store more than half his life and he loved that job, he loved the people. You knew if he wasn’t at the store, he was at the ballpark. He had such a love for softball back from the old FECO team days, to all the co-ed teams and then the Huntsman World Senior games. Many friends also remember the times spent at Pineview with speedboats or at the drag races and car shows. As well as all the meals at Moore’s Restaurant. He really was an incredible man. He was always willing to help anyone, anytime. He will be greatly missed by many. We love you Dad!

He is survived by his brother Clyde (Delma) and Daughters Debbie (John) and Kensey. His 4 grandchildren Brittany, Jake, Amber and Marlee and 1 great grandchild Braylon.

George and I both grew up in Wilson Lane.  He lived at the West end of the lane and I lived about a mile east.  We attended school together until our junior year when he moved to Ogden.  He was good at all athletics and we spent many hours playing various versions of baseball and football at the Wilson Elementary playground.  He was driving his parents’ car when he was in junior high taking them to the store and various appointments.  He learned all about cars and worked selling car parts most of his life.

We lost track of each other for a few years, but when we both turned 50 we started to play senior softball in the Salt Lake senior league.  We played on the same teams at times and were also on opposite teams a few times.  We traveled around the western states playing in tournaments and always at the senior games in St. George.  He played softball until his death.  A great friend since we were 6 years old and I will miss his smile and humor.
