He loved his family, the Lord and his church. He enjoyed fishing, boating, vacationing with his family, walking, relaxing outdoors and working. He was a member of Ashland Plaza church of the Nazarene and a former board member. He was a former bluegrass musician and loved southern gospel music.
Surviving are his wife, Geneva Kitchen Hanks; a daughter, Debbie Jennings of Ashland and her son, Brandon Nabors, of Nashville, Tenn.; son, Jack D. Hanks and his wife, Tina, and their son, Isaiah of Ashland; siblings, Howard Hanks of Ashland, Tom Hanks of Columbus, sister, Shirley Seagraves of Johns Run and many nieces, nephews and friends too numerous to list.
