Jack L. Bunton, age 85, went to be with the Savior he cherished on Sunday, October 18, 2020 at Memorial Health in Savannah, Georgia. Jack was born in Ridgeland, South Carolina on August 26, 1935 to Ivy Leonard and Gertrude Heape Bunton. He married the love of his life, June Beckwith, in 1956 and that love continued for the next 64 years.
Unlike a lot of folks, Jack enjoyed his work. He installed telephone systems and whether the job was small or as in later years, huge company systems, he took pride in his work.
Mr. Bunton is preceded in death by his parents, his step-father, Marshall Gruber and his brother, Billy Bunton.
He is survived by and will be greatly missed by his wife, June, and his other close loved ones that include: Cheryl Waters, Susan Bunton, Robin Bonner (Fred), Melanie Matzen (Paul), Shannon Elmgren, Erin Wells (Charles), Corey Gillenwater (Melissa), Trey Bonner, Clint Gillenwater, Chelsea Matzen, Zachary Matzen, Peyton Elmgren, Jackson O’Donnell, Emerson Elmgren, Henry Wells, James Gillenwater, Luke Gillenwater, Hadleigh Matzen, and Cora Cowart. Also, left cherishing their memories together are his sister, Shirley Parker; his sisters-in-law, Myrtice Bunton and Peggy Sells; and his brothers-in-law, John Jones and Tommy Jones.
