Together, they have 12 grandchildren with one great-grandchild on the way. Jack was preceded in death by his father, mother, and older brother, James. He is survived by his wife, children and grandchildren, as well as his siblings: Richard, Barbara, and his twin sister, Betty – all of Springdale, Ark., and sister-in-law, Joanne Frost (his brother's widow) of Little Rock.
