John T. (Jack) Sarb of Lowell, MI, age 83, passed away peacefully on March 16, 2019. He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Aileen Sarb; and brother, Jerry Sarb.

Jack was first and foremost a family man, who enjoyed camping and time at the family cottage with all the kids and grandchildren.  Jack also enjoyed boating, fishing, hunting, and travel by RV with Vee. A special memory was their trip to Alaska by RV caravan. Jack had a remarkable career in the logistics industry, rising from the loading dock to the executive ranks, first with Associated Truck Lines of Grand Rapids and later Standard Products Company.  Jack loved all his granddogs equally even though none of them hunt.
