CROCKETT, John (Jack) Arnold

John (Jack) Arnold CROCKETT (14 September 1980)

Jack (or ‘Davey’) Crockett was a POW in two wars, and an Accountant in Sunshine Gold Development pre-World War II. Joining the Administration in 1946, he was Chief Clerk in many towns. Famous for his copperplate handwriting, his work in Freemasonry, his willing help when younger officers couldn’t balance the books, Jack will be long remembered for his good humour and his likeable eccentricities.
