His favorite position, was as member of his beloved Palm Springs Club where he played dominoes with his best friends every day at lunch time for decades. He would come home from lunch and his daughter Lisa would ask him, "Did you win today, Daddy?" And he would often respond: "I only won by one but one's as good as a million!" Jack had many wonderful family members waiting to meet him in Heaven: His loyal and talented wife, Beverly Ann McFadden; successful and beloved son, Robert Clyde(Bob)McFadden of Carson City; beautiful and cherished granddaughter, Michelle (Shelley) Marie McFadden of San Diego, his parents, Robert Clyde and June McFadden of Placentia, brother and sister-in-law, Robert Clyde and Jane McFadden of Long Beach, and dearest mother-in-law, Elizabeth (Trixie) McGee Cross of Rancho Mirage.
