Jack retired after 38 years as a meat cutter for Safeway and Homeland. He attended school in Hominy and went on to serve in the United States Army.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Edward Oliver and Ethel Blue; sisters, Ada Blue, Nancy Bell Blue, Shirley Blue, Edna Mae Blue; brothers, George "Bozo" Blue, Floyd Blue, Jim Blue and Johnny Blue.
