Charles Leo (Jack) Reasbeck, 85, of Unionville, passed away on the morning of July 5, 2023, at the Putnam County Care Center where he was a resident for 3 years.
The son of Charles and Bertha Reasbeck, he was born December 8, 1937, in Martins Ferry, Ohio. On March 21, 1958, he was untied in marriage to Marie Pensis who preceded him in death on May 3, 2017.
Surviving children are Tina and Mike McCormack of Unionville, Kenny and Suzanne Reasbeck of Warrensburg, Jackie and Cindy Reasbeck of Lee’s Summit, and Tony Reasbeck of Unionville; seven grandchildren, Shawn (Cara) McCormack, Shayla (Daniel) Spring, Robert (Jenn) Reasbeck, Beth (Forrest) Hancock, Maggie Reasbeck (Kellen Warren), Chelsey (Donovan) Ortega, and Hannah (Zachary) Rasmussen; and thirteen great-grandchildren, Riley and Chase (Shawn), Brayten and Liam (Shayla), Gabi, Karson, and Alex (Robert), Sam and Joe (Beth), Cannon and Siena (Chelsey), and Oakley and Bowen (Hannah).
Jack’s parents and brother Joseph Vincent (J.V.) preceded him in death. His sisters Carol, Virginia, Phyllis, Becky, Nancy, and Cindy survive.
In 1971, Jack and Marie moved from Ohio to Unionville, MO, during the startup of Missouri Mining, Inc. where he worked as a Foreman of Construction for several years. During the shutdown of the mining operations, he opened his own shop, Jack’s Welding, which he operated for several years until his retirement in 2007.
Unionville became their home where they raised their children, made many life-long friends, and where they chose to be laid to rest.
Jack enjoyed time with family, cutting a rug with Marie in their younger years, was a life-long fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers, and harassing his customers, several of which became dear friends. He often mentioned how much he enjoyed the countless hours spent between tractor pulls and motorcycle racing with the kids because it was always a family event. He was a firm, yet tender and loving husband and father. He will be dearly missed.
