John Francis Clunen
John “Jack” Francis Clunen, born March 12, 1941, departed for his heavenly residence on February 6th, 2023. Jack is survived by his wife of 60 years, Bette Clunen; his children: Linda (Doug) Hughes, Ree (Tony) Aguirre; 5 grandchildren: Denise (Dereck) Heim, Ryan (Michelle) Wood, Taylor (Sara) Aguirre, Kayla Aguirre and Doug Hughes, Jr.; and 4 great-grandchildren: Victoria, Alyssa, Luke and Harper.
Jack was a devoted life-long Catholic parishioner and earned the distinction of 4th degree with the Knights of Columbus. After his service in the Air Force, he worked 30 years for Delta Air Lines. He specialized in avionics and was involved in various flight operations overseas. Jack’s other accomplishments are far too numerous to mention here, but high among them is that those of us who truly knew him were happier because of him.
The funeral service will be at 11am on Monday, February 13, 2023, at Good Shepherd Catholic Church, 3940 Holtzclaw Rd, Cumming, GA 30041. A luncheon will immediately follow the service and be held in the hospitality room at Good Shepherd.

Linda and family, you have my deepest empathy on the the loss of your sweet father, husband, and grandfather. May the Lord be the salve you need as you navigate the days ahead, “He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds”-Psalms 147:3. Please know he is now with our heavenly father and is with you and watching over you, always. “Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die’.” -John 11:25. All my love, Kathryn

Our condolences at the loss of your father, and grandfather.
The righteous perish,
and no one takes it to heart;
the devout are taken away,
and no one understands
that the righteous are taken away
to be spared from evil
Isaiah 57:1
