Jack L. Grove of Lewiston passed away Friday, June 14, 2013, after a diagnosis and a brief illness of pancreatic cancer.

Jack was born June 4, 1935, in Kamiah. He was the son of Lewis and Florence Grove; he entered this world being delivered by his Norwegian grandmother.

His parents moved many times throughout his school years, so he completed his education in many different schools. Jack had many interests during his lifetime. Some of his interests in earlier years included boxing and bareback riding. He also enjoyed owning and exercising race horses. Throughout his later years camping, gardening and boating became big portions of his life.

Jack had many different places he liked to camp, but one of his favorites was the North Fork. While he was there he loved fishing for trout, riding four-wheelers, relaxing and spending time with family. He loved just taking in all of the surroundings.

One of Jack's enjoyments was planting flowers and spending time at home and traveling with his wife Carol. When he wasn't home working, he had another piece of property where he planted many different fruit trees and two different gardens that he enjoyed tending to and watching grow. He kept things well-manicured.

Jack and his boat, the Canyon Cajun, were a well-known sight on the Snake and Clearwater rivers. You could always count on him to be doing some sort of fishing, whether it was sturgeon, bass, steelhead or salmon. He had many early trips where he was one of the first guys to be out on the Clearwater, headed to his favorite fishing hole in the dark.

His parents, brother Rex and sister Judy preceded him in death.

He is survived by wife, Carol; three sons, Terry, Rex and Kelley; five grandchildren, Stacy, Stephanie, Chandler, Taylor and Jessica; and one great-grandchild, Alex; sister Gloria (Dave); and nieces, Gina and Jodi; and nephews, Jerry and Artie; and numerous cousins.

Jack has been cremated and there will be no services at his request, but he thanks his family and friends for making life great. I think he might say to you, "You need one life to learn and the next to live."
