John "Jack" Wilson, 76, passed away peacefully on Tuesday January 21, 2020 while surrounded by his loving family, from complications related to Alzheimer's disease. Jack was born on October 25, 1943 in Pittsburgh, PA, and moved to Daytona Beach, FL when he was just a year old with his parents, John and Dorothy Wilson.

He spent 30 years working for Volusia County Schools and retired as a Guidance Counselor. After retirement, he owned the company, Educational Funding Systems as well as Beach Concessions and Rentals. Jack lived life to the fullest and had a passion for traveling with his wife, fishing, cruising, playing softball, attending NASCAR races and Gator football games, and most of all, making people laugh.
