Terry David Jacks

May 25, 1949 - November 18, 2020

Terry David Jacks, Sr., age 71, of Trussville, Alabama, was called home by his Lord and Savior on Wednesday, November 18, 2020. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle. He was extremely proud of his service in the United States Marine Corps from 1969 to 1971, where he was promoted to Sergeant. It was in the Marine Corps where he also learned his life’s vocation of butchery, and he continued with that vocation until his retirement. His favorite past times were fishing, classic cars (and cruise-ins), observing nature, talking to friends and family, loving on his dogs, and tinkering in the garage. He had a sense of humor unmatched by anyone around and was a kind person who was friendly to all. Mr. Jacks is preceded in death by his parents, James Jacks and Grace Jacks. He is survived by his wife of 53 years, Sandra Crutchfield Jacks; his sons, Terry David Jacks, Jr. (Jennifer) and Darryl Jacks (Katie); and his grandchildren, Jane Jacks and Leo Jacks. His service will be held at the Alabama National Cemetery on [•]. In lieu of sending flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to the Greater Birmingham Humane Society via www.gbhs.org/donate or at 300 Snow Drive, Birmingham, AL 35209.
