    He was born in Danville on Aug. 14, 1933, the son of Kenneth E. and Hazel E. (Swisher) Goodner.
    Jack married JoAnn Taylor on Jan. 30, 1959 in Georgetown. She survives.

    Jack was a graduate of Danville High School. He was a veteran of the United States Navy during the Korean War and served as a submariner. He previously owned his own real estate office, Land Office Realty, and retired from the Operations Department at the University of Illinois in 1998.
    Jack was a member of the American Legion Post 210 and a member of the Danville Barbershop Chorus for many years. He previously served on the Vermilion County War Museum Board and served as a golf ranger at Harrison Park Golf Course. Jack loved to play golf and ride his motorcycle.
    The essence of Jack's life was showing love to his family and friends through random acts of humor, wit, words, and song. It was not uncommon to find an old treasured family photo in the mail from him or a small gift tucked beside our dinner plate at one of our many family gatherings.
