Jack, 80, of Sequim, Washington passed away peacefully on August 11, 2014 at Bremerton Hospice. Born July 22, 1934 in Princeton, Texas to Olin Benton and Mary Henritta Godwin. Jack married the love of his life Sharron Hindman on September 6, 1958. Immediately after marrying they moved to Chicago where Jack attended Devry Institute majoring in electrical engineering.
