Jean Givens, age 94, passed away in Jack, AL on November 09, 2026.

Mrs. Givens spent much of her life making a home and a beautiful life for the family she adored. Though she worked in several capacities throughout her life, including as a realtor and a key punch operator for Ingalls, her greatest joy was found in caring for her family. A devoted military wife and true country girl at heart, she loved tending to her vegetable garden, sewing, shelling peas and butter beans. She found happiness in the simple pleasures of home and took great pride in creating a place where her family was always loved and welcomed.

Her faith was the foundation of her life. A longtime member of Life Church for more than 20 years, she also enjoyed attending services at The Outpost Church. She lived her life with a desire to serve Christ and share His love with others. Whether visiting nursing homes and assisted living facilities with a dear friend to spend time and sing Christian songs with the residents, or simply lending a helping hand wherever one was needed, she made a point of showing kindness to those around her. She also worked with helping veterans and had a jail ministry. Her life was a reflection of the love she so freely gave, and the legacy she leaves behind will live on in the hearts of all those she touched.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Archie Givens; son, Mike Givens. Parents,William and Francis, Brothers, J.D, Henry, Foster, Sammie. Sisters, Vernia, Eva, Evie, Emily, Mary, and Lucille.

Left to cherish her memory are her children, Jeff (Phyllis) Givens, Deborah Lewis, Christina(Michael) Roberts, and Ted Givens, 12 grandchildren, 24 great grandchildren, 2 great-great grandchildren; nieces, nephews, other relatives and many friends.
