Jack Lee Beaudrie, 58, went to be with our Lord on Thursday, September 17, 2015. He was born in Battle Creek, Michigan on December 6, 1956 to the late Harvey Lee Beaudrie and Alma Jean Ward (Howell). He leaves behind a loving and supportive family, his wife, Anna Jean Beaudrie (Anderson), two sons, Johnathan Lee and Aaron Tyler Beaudrie, his lovely daughter, Lisa Marie Beaudrie with former spouse, Nelda Beaudrie (Castleberry) and son-in-law, Dwayne Dufraine, all of Battle Creek, his sister Elesa Beaudrie McDaniels and loving nephew, Kirk Lee McDaniels, of Cleveland, Tennessee; three beautiful grandchildren, Anisa, Jacob, and Alena, all of Battle Creek. Jack was an easy going guy who always had a smile for everyone. He grew up in Athens, MI, graduating from the Athens High School in 1975 before moving to Battle Creek. Jack worked for Calhoun County in building maintenance for 27 years working first in Albion, then in Marshall, and most recently as Building Supervisor of the Calhoun County Justice Center in Battle Creek before retiring in 2012. He was the epitome of "A Jack of all trades", being very skilled in all areas, and loved to tinker in his garage. He was a lover of music, and played the guitar for many years. Jack loved his children with all his heart, and was always there for them through their trials and accomplishments. He enjoyed spending time with his family, especially his lifelong friend, Mike Williamson. Jack will be deeply missed by his family and many cousins and friends who loved him very much. He was close to the Lord, and knew great things awaited him when he went home. He was preceded in death by his Father and Mother, and infant Brother, Donnie..
