Jack William Moberg, age 90, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, October 6, 2020 at Sunnyview Care Center in Ankeny.
Jack was born April 28, 1930 in Des Moines, Iowa to Adolph and Helen (Hensley) Moberg. He proudly served in the US Army during the Korean War from 1950 – 1952. He was employed by Younkers for over 37 years, being promoted through various positions. He went on to be a property owner and manager for many rental properties in the area.
Jack attended Experience Church. He was an accomplished pianist who learned to play by ear and knew more than 800 songs by heart. He enjoyed this hobby for over 50 years. He was able to fix just about anything and was fond of saying, “If you can’t fix it, you don’t need it.” He had a wonderful sense of humor and enjoyed telling jokes. Above all, he loved his family with all his heart.

Upon meeting Jack years ago, as a neighbor, I knew right away he loved our Heavenly Father. He was passionate about Jesus and sharing His love. He would laugh as he told me a new joke; cry when singing a hymn, and genuinely cared about people. Jack is finally Home.....❤

Jack was always a great father figure to me. I'll always love him and Lois. He loved and served the Lord wholeheartedly. I bet he's whooping it up with the saints in glory now!

Jack was a great guy. First of all because he was a Christian Man, something you would know about him from the first time you meet him. Secondly, Jack took me under his wing when I graduated from Tech High School and helped me land my first full-time job at Yonkers. Then knowing that I really wanted to be in the refrigeration field, Jack put me in touch with his friend at White-Westinghouse and I landed my 2nd job, where I stayed for 8 years. They say God puts certain people in your life for various reasons. I will be forever grateful that God put Jack in my life. Thank You Jack, my you RIP.

My favorite piano man.
A kind and Godly man.
Faithful husband to Lois.
A servant of our Almighty God.
A Believer in Christ Jesus who bled and died and rose from the dead so Jack could be with Him in his Glory forever and Ever.
I'm so glad I knew him and will see him again.

Hard to be sad when you think of his present circumstances. Loved his music and always your friendship in past years but never forgotten. Enjoy all your good memories as they come to mind. Verses that were very helpful to me are in Lam. 3:21 ESV But this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

Just no words to describe this wonderful, giving man. Heaven now has another wonderful piano player and gentle soul. Hoping he and Dad have been celebrating their renewed friendship and singing in the heavenly choir. Much love and prayers to Lois and the family.

Not enough room for all our memories. One of a kind.We will miss seeing him, visiting with him, promoting him and defending him. There is a song that says "what a day that will be when our loved ones we shall see". Jack now knows how great that day is! Remember the past and cherish your memories. We will of Jack. Rev 21:4
