      Jack I. Shutts Jr., 59, of Vienna, passed away on Nov. 30, 2008, at Camden-Clark Memorial Hospital surrounded by his family.

      He was born in Parkersburg on July 30, 1949, a son of the late Jack I. Sr. and Martha Janelle Griffith Shutts.

      Jack graduated from Parkersburg High School in 1969. He had worked in the heating and air conditioning business for many years and was with Knickerbacker Inc. for 28 years where he served as sales engineer. Jack was very involved in his community. He was a member of the Boaz Lions Club and served on the local, regional and state level. He received the two highest Lions International awards, the Leonard Jarred and Melvin Jones Fellow awards. He was a member of the Ohio Valley Home Builders Association where he received the Richard B. Yoder Community Service Award and was active with Vienna Recreation, coaching hockey. He was a member of the Arnold Golf League and served on the board of the Horizons Group Home. He enjoyed dirt track auto racing and had served as a flagger, announcer and scorekeeper at both Skyline Speedway and Tyler County Speedway.

      Jack is survived by his wife of 24 years, Billie Beatty Shutts; his children, Mindy R. Schulz and Rod Jr. of Newport News, Va., Nathaniel Wanzie and Stefania of St. Marys, Ga., Jackie Shutts and companion, Mark Farrell, and his son, Kyle, of Bremerton, Wash., and Danielle Shutts of the home; and a nephew who was more like a son to Jack, Brian Reed and his wife, Angie, of Parkersburg.

      Jack and Billie had the privilege of serving as host parents to 25 foreign exchange students from around the world, many with whom they still had contact.

      In addition to his parents, Jack was preceded in death by a niece, Tina Reed.
