Jack Mitchell Barr's Obituary
Jack Mitchell Barr, a beacon of strength and love, passed away on June 30, 2024, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Born on July 23, 1954, to Jack Milton and Jewel Ernestine Barr, Jack’s life was a testament to determination and affection.
Nearly five decades ago, Jack united with his soulmate, Adrienne Barr, and together they built a family legacy that will endure through generations. His passion for music and singing was only matched by his devotion to his faith and family. Known for his humor and playful spirit, Jack was the epitome of a loving husband and father, and a doting grandfather to his cherished grandchildren.
Jack’s laughter was infectious, and his love for soccer, cars, and motorcycles was well-known, with his Mustang holding a special place in his heart. A master of the grill, he relished the times spent surrounded by family at cookouts, where he was always the gentle giant among them.
Preceded in death by his parents, Jack’s legacy lives on through his wife, Adrienne Barr; his sons, Jason Barr (and wife Cate) and Jeremy Barr; his grandchildren, Lilly Barr, Gentry Barr, Stella Barr, and Jasper Barr; his sisters, Janice Mitchell and Donna Terrill; nieces Ashley Bermingham, Jessica Ogle, Kelly Easton, Chrissy Warnock, and Joanna Williams; nephews Bryan Williams, Dan Ewy, Zach Ewy, Matt Williams, Blake Danne, and Nick Bowen; along with many other family members and friends who will forever cherish the memories Jack has left with each of them.
Friends and family are invited to pay their respects during visitation on Sunday, July 7, 2024, from 1 PM to 4 PM at Floral Haven Funeral Home. A celebration of Jack’s life will follow on Monday, July 8th at 11:00 AM at Arrow Heights Baptist Church in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma.
Jack’s memory will be forever etched in the hearts of those he touched. He leaves behind a legacy of joy, kindness, and an unwavering faith in Jesus Christ that will continue to inspire all who knew him.
