Jack W. Montague was a faithful member of Crossroads Baptist Church until he became ill a few years ago. He loved Jesus, even until his last weeks when he could not remember much else you could ask him who Jesus was to him, and he would say "He is my Lord and Savior."  His favorite quote in times of trouble was "you just have to have faith, hope and love."  He was a wonderful Father, Grandfather and Great Grandfather. He loved his family with all his heart and loved spending time with them most of all. Jack retired from Bauxite & Northern Railway after working 30 years and 4 months without taking a single sick day.
