Jack Kinsey was born Sept. 6, 1929, in Tampa, Fla. At an early age, he moved
with his family to West Palm Beach, Fla.
He was a meticulous finish carpenter by trade.

finally moved his loving wife, Jackie, and three children to Alaska in 1960.
Jack and Jacqueline Hand married at an early age and were lifelong partners.
He was an avid sportsman and loved hunting, fishing and camping. He was
kind, compassionate and caring and never at a loss for words. He loved
spending quality time with his three children and devoted wife.
He was preceded in death by his son, Roy "Buzz" Kinsey, who lived in
Anchorage.
Jack is survived by his wife of 62 years, Jackie; his children, Sharon
Thompson of Orlando, Fla., and William "Bill" Kinsey of West Palm Beach;
four granddaughters, Tanya Hamilton of Chicago, Jackie Mouser of Soldotna,

great-grandchildren. He is also survived by a sister, Lois Holland of
Leavenworth, Wash.; and many nieces and nephews.

Diabetes Association.
Arrangements are with Legacy Funeral Homes, Kehl's Chapel.
