SIMMONS,
Jackie Lee "Jack" Jackie Lee "Jack" Simmons of Coppell, Texas, took his
final bow Friday, April 17, 2015 in Dallas, Texas. Born April 2, 1930 in
San Angelo, Texas to Arthur Lee Simmons and Mary Davis Shurman Simmons,
Jack grew up in Hereford, Texas, with a love for Texas land and Texas
football. Jack married the woman who stole his heart, Agnes Carroll
Cummins, on September 23, 1950 in Taft, Texas. He had a secret love of
acting, an instinct for business, and an eye for Texas real estate. Jack
studied business at Texas A&M (gig 'em!) and later received a bachelor's
degree from the University of North Texas. Jack founded Property Tax
Service Company in 1970 where he served as President and Chairman of the
Board. One of his proudest accomplishments was his involvement in the
creation of the Early Learning Center at St. Mark Presbyterian Church in
Boerne, Texas. The man loved football. Golf was his other love. He made
many friends on the golf course and really believed golf to be a
lifelong game. During his retirement, Jack acted in numerous community
theater productions in Boerne, Bulverde, Comfort, and Coppell. Jack
enjoyed the comedies and those who knew him will forever thank him for
his many years of service protecting them from boredom. Jack is survived
by his wife, Agnes; children, Carroll Simmons Benham, Lee Maurice
Simmons, Keith Dwayne Simmons, Jesse Ray Simmons and Elizabeth Mary
Simmons; twelve grandchildren and five great grandchildren. A service to
celebrate Jack's life will be held 1:00 p.m. Tuesday, April 21, 2015, at
First United Methodist Church in Coppell. Interment will follow at
