Jack Staples

On July 6, 2021 the Staples family lost their hero, Jack Staples. He was a soulmate and forever love to his wife. To his children and grandchildren, he was bigger than life, amazing, charitable, selfless, inspiring and courageous.

Jack is survived by his wife of almost 60 years, Judie, his two sons Buddy and Jody, daughter Kathy and grandchildren Taylor, Lindsey, Cooper and Alex, along with his treasured dog Bella. His endless love and devotion to his family is evident in their representation of him.

His dedication to hard work began at an early age. By his early 30s, he with his wife by his side, invented the blood pressure machine that was placed in the malls that saved countless lives. However, his true passion was boating and fishing. After selling his first invention, he achieved his dream by buying Donzi Marine and building a fishing boat of pure perfection, the Z-65 Donzi. Once Donzi was sold, it was back to saving lives, but in a different manner this time. He was protecting those who could not protect themselves by creating the GPS offender tracker.

In retirement, he enjoyed the simple things in life - driving up to the mountains in the RV, spending time with his wife, family and close friends, and eating a good cheeseburger accompanied by a cold Coke.

God broke the mold when he made Jack Staples on February 9, 1943 and finally brought him home on July 6, 2021 (age 78).
