The family of Jack M. Wilson Jr. has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to attend the services and military honors for their Hero.  It would be our honor to do so.
 
Jack Wilson was inducted into the U.S. Army in October 1964 and served in the Vietnam War.  He was honorably discharged in October 1966 at the rank of Spec 4.
 
After the military he worked in the recycling industry and was a swap meet dealer for many years.  He also became interested in antiques and enjoyed making good finds and reselling them.  He also enjoyed family time.
 
Jack's survivors are his children Scott (wife Erica), Matt, Maggie and Drucilla. 6 grandchildren and 1 great grandchild.  He also has 4 surviving siblings, Shirley, Donna, Dede and Sue.
