Jack David Sexton, 91, of Danville died January 21, 2025. He was born on September 11, 1933, in Monticello, Kentucky, to the late Nannie Russell Sexton and the late John and Lissie Sexton. He was predeceased by a son Jackie Sexton.

Jack dedicated his life to his family and his work, serving as a milk distributor for Southern Belle for over 35 years. He served his country in the United States Army, where he drove tanks. Known for his quick wit and playful teasing, he brought laughter and joy to those around him, leaving a lasting impression on everyone he met.

He treasured his 69-year marriage to his devoted wife, Jo Anne, with whom he shared a life full of love, laughter, and companionship. His kindness and jovial spirit with a cigar in his hand is how he’ll be remembered.

  1. Jack was one of a kind, him and my daddy were like two pees in a pod joking and laughing. You’ll be missed my friend.

  2. Jack and my late husband Wayne Stevens were great friends. Such a sweet person , he will be greatly missed. Prayers for all the family.

  3. This absolutely breaks my heart. Sending lots of love and prayers to JoAnn and his children. Jack was the funniest and best man you could meet. R.I.P Jack. God only takes the best and you are the best!!

  4. Sorry for your Loss! If my Dad Ed Alsman didn’t have Dementia I’m sure he’d would of been there for the visitation.

  5. Scott, I knew your dad way before I ever knew you. He was my milkman at my nana’s restaurant (the Drugstore – also known as Lovett’s) where I worked and hung-out as a kid. ❤️ We all loved him greatly. He was so kind to me & ALWAYS fun. Never had a bad day. Always respectful & mannerly to my nana. I think I learned a lot of my positive energy & disposition from your dad. He was one of my first professional role models. Hugs to you all.
