Asheboro

G. Jack Mowery Jr., of Asheboro, NC, passed away peacefully on Sunday, September 22, 2024 at the age of 75. Jack was born on October 3, 1948, in Greenville, SC, to Grover Jack Mowery and Beatrice Elizabeth Shean Mowery. Jack graduated from East Forsyth Senior High School, Class of 1966. He attended Pembroke University and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Textile Technology from NC State University. For 35 years, Jack dedicated his career to textile sales and manufacturing for the knitting industry at Arrow Precision Elements, Inc.

Jack was known for his quick wit and sense of humor. He always had a clever remark or playful joke, ensuring those around him were smiling. He was a voracious reader, avid golfer, and all-around sports enthusiast. He loved listening to his collection of vinyl and watching live music.

Jack’s greatest joy was his family. He was a devoted husband to Elaine. As a father and grandfather, Jack took immense pride in spending time with his children, sharing his wisdom, stories, and unwavering support. His granddaughter Chloe, whom he adored, was the light of his life. Their bond was one of pure joy, filled with laughter and cherished moments.

He will be deeply missed by his wife, Elaine Martin Mowery; his children, Matthew Christopher Mowery (Jennifer) of Asheboro, NC, and Mary Elizabeth Wells (Peter) of Raleigh, NC; his beloved granddaughter, Chloe Anne Wells; and his many nieces and nephews, and dear friends. He is survived by two sisters, Diane Rose (Chuck) of Wallburg, NC, and Suzi Miller (Ben) of Winston Salem, NC.

The family will receive friends on September 25, 2024 from 11:00 am-12 noon at Pugh Funeral Home, 437 Sunset Avenue in Asheboro.  Jack’s life will be celebrated at 12 noon at the Pugh Funeral Home Chapel with Marcus Wall officiating.  Interment will be held at Floral Garden Park Cemetery in High Point.  In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Randolph Hospice House.
