He was preceded in death by his faithful wife of 60 years, Doris Manus Hicks, Granddaughter Lisa Helt, parents Lawson and Suvilla Hicks, and three brothers, Lee, Williams and Hubert.

He is survived by five blessed children, Debbee (Mike) Combs, Jo Hicks and June (Joey) Reeves of TN and Katie Helt and Clint (Dee Dee) Hicks of FL, eight Grandchildren, several Great-grandchildren, three special sisters, Louise O’Kelley, Mary Jane Clayton and Becky Hicks, and two brothers, Bobby and Frankie, and many nieces and nephews.

The family will hold a private memorial for J.C. at a later date.
