Jack was a beloved son, nephew, brother, and uncle. Jack started working at the young age of 10. He took great pride in his craft and dedicated his daily routine to becoming a successful entrepreneur. After working years at his family-owned boat marinas, he started his own ventures with Classic Detail Shoppe, Jacks Sheds and Lawn Furniture, followed by Naturally Beautiful Stone Scaping. Jack started each day early and with a fast start to head out to work. He was on the go 24-7, not letting rain, snow or any of the hottest or coldest days slow his hard work ethic down.
Jack always tried to spread positivity daily in his ‘have a naturally beautiful day’ texts, sharing pics of nature, singing his favorite classic rock songs, and with his fast wit comebacks that could make you laugh.
His family appreciated his direct yet blunt honesty. He kept it real in their eyes. Jack loved his dogs, being on or near the water, the beach, the sky, nature, and creating naturally beautiful things with stone, landscape, wood, flowers and design. The creative thinking he could see clearly in his mind and displayed in all of his work.
As a young boy, he was very protective of his siblings. He was brave and strong. He was a protector of dogs. He was always on a look out for stray dogs to bring home to our family to help heal, and love. He grew up to be true to the ‘Leo, the lion’ astrology sign traits: bold, confident, prideful, creative, charismatic, ambitious, and handsome as a lion. Jack had a tough exterior, but his family all knew he had a big heart, bigger than any amount of money could ever buy. He was a man of few words, but those he shared, had high impact and many times inspiring.
Jack Joseph Lyons, III, passed away in his home, on February 18, 2025, at the age of 57. He will be forever missed by his loving mother, Ramona Jean Lyons, his caring aunt, Eleanor Suzanne Kraczyk, his brother, Brent Richard Lyons, sister and brother-in-law, Laurie and John Kirschner, as well as his niece and nephews.
Relatives and friends are invited to his viewing, 9:15 to 10:15 am on Tuesday, February 25, 2025, followed by his 10:30 am mass at Saint Matthew Church, 3000 Cottman Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19149. Interment will be private.
