Jack Chubby Andrew Harris

Jack “Chubby” Andrew Harris Jr. was a long-time San Angelo resident known to his circle as a steady, familiar presence. Published accounts and community fundraising pages identify him by name and the affectionate nickname “Chubby,” and describe relationships in his life—among them a younger man who called him “dad”—that point to close personal bonds and informal family ties. Those who organized support for funeral expenses framed the loss as one felt by family and friends who survived him.

Public records and local reporting place Jack at the center of community connections in San Angelo rather than in public honors or formal biographies. Friends and neighbors remember him first as a person who mattered to those around him: someone who occupied ordinary days and quietly carried responsibilities that mattered to people who relied on him. The details publicly available about Jack emphasize relationships—his name, his age, and the ways people close to him referred to him—rather than lists of jobs or formal accomplishments, and this suggests his life was lived in the everyday ways that knit communities together.

On March 20, 2019, Jack’s life ended; local reporting confirms he died that day in San Angelo. His death was followed by efforts within the community to support final arrangements, reflecting that he was known and cared for by friends and relatives. Out of respect for the family’s privacy and given the limits of public records, this remembrance focuses on the human facts that are verifiable: Jack’s name, his role within his social circle, and the grief his loss caused to those who knew him.

Although full biographical details such as his date of birth, employment history, or extended family list are not available in the public notices reviewed, the record that remains is of a person with meaningful relationships and a place in his neighborhood. For a life that may not have been widely chronicled, it is important to hold to the reality that Jack “Chubby” Andrew Harris Jr. was a person whose presence mattered to others. May the memory of his connections and the care expressed by friends and family be honored by those who remember him.
