Jacky Ray Muncy, 80, passed away Saturday, Aug. 7, at Skyline Medical Center.
Born in Cannon County, he was the son of the late Kenneth B. and Susan Evalena Brazwell Muncy.
He is survived by his children, Shelia (Brian) Kelly and Tim Muncy of Woodbury and Angela Wiggins of McMinnville, siblings Billy O. (Joyce) Muncy, Mary Katherine Prater and Rebecca (Mark) Hayes, all of Woodbury, grandchildren Brian Chase Kelly, Rachel Elizabeth Muncy, Derek Allen Muncy, Tabitha Nicole Muncy and Nancy Ann Wiggins.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his daughterin- law Betty Sue Muncy.
A member of the Leoni Church of Christ, he was a graduate of Cannon County High School. He was a longtime employee of S& S Industries, from which he retired in 2003. He also worked at Green & Sons Implements and John Deere in Warren County.
Since his retirement, he has rescued numerous dogs, as he was a lover of all animals, especially dogs and horses. He loved to ride horses, go camping and fishing. He also hunted rabbits and squirrels in his younger days. He was a “Jack of all trades” and could do and fix about
anything. He also liked to work with wood. He was a man of very few words but will be greatly missed.
Visitation was Tuesday, Aug. 10, at Woodbury Funeral Home. Graveside service followed at 2:30 p.m. at Leoni Cemetery with Bro. Garland Robinson officiating. Pallbearers included David George, Hal Champion, Ronnie Hall, Robert Pitts, Chase Kelly and Derek Muncy.
