Jack Crannell

Jack F. Crannell, 100, passed away peacefully on October 22, 2025.

Born on February 21, 1925, in Glens Falls, Jack was the son of Forrest J. and Gertrude P. Crannell. A lifelong resident of West Glens Falls, he graduated from Glens Falls High School in 1943. Following graduation, Jack enlisted in the United States Navy, serving on a PT boat during World War II.

After returning home from the war, Jack met and married the love of his life, Marie Ann Cook, in 1947. Together, they raised two children, Terry and Jackie in the home that Jack solely built. Jack’s adult life was centered on family and hard work.

Jack ran the family business, Crannell’s Dairy until he retired at the age of 48. After retiring from the dairy business, Jack invested in real estate, managing many apartment buildings to fill his time. In Jack’s later years, you could find him spending countless hours in his woodworking shop. Although tables were his specialty, Jack was known to make a large variety of hardwood furniture that he would donate to charities or nonprofit organizations in his community.

Jack was a proud father, grandfather and great-grandfather who took immense joy in watching his family grow over the years.

He was predeceased by his wife, Marie; his son, Terry; his sister, Betty Eggleston and her two sons, Richard and James.

Jack is survived by his daughter, Jacqueline Coon and her husband, David, of Queensbury; his granddaughter Lisa Morris, her husband Bill, and their children, Katherine and William, of Moreau; two grandsons, Michael Coon and his sons, James and Jack, of Queensbury; and Justin Crannell of Queensbury.

Per Jack’s wishes, there will be no calling hours. Services will be private.

Arrangements under the care of Regan Denny Stafford Funeral Home, 53 Quaker Road, Queensbury. For those who wish online condolences can be made to the family by visiting www.sbfuneralhome.com.
