John Michael Kane

of Conway, AR

September 1, 1954 - January 4, 2025

John Michael Kane, a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather and servant of God, passed away surrounded by family on January 4, 2025. Born on September 1, 1954 to John and Marianne Kane in San Francisco, California, he placed his trust in Christ at the tender age of 8, laying the foundation for a life dedicated to faith and service.

John grew up in Kingsburg, California along with his sisters, Margie and Julianne. He was involved in competitive swimming, band and choir. He graduated from Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas in June 1976. An exceptional athlete, he was later inducted into the Hendrix College Sports Hall of Honor. While at Hendrix, he met the love of his life, Stephanie Jean Dell. The two were married on June 5, 1976 and shared nearly five decades of love, faith and family.

Professionally, John had a distinguished career, retiring from Acxiom after 37 years of dedicated service. He was known for his integrity, loyalty and the pursuit of excellence. He attended First Baptist Church in Vilonia, where he served as a deacon. He loved being on the worship team and the missions team.

He is survived by his loving wife, Stephanie; their three children, Nicole Burns, Sara Brock (Kenneth) and Michael Kane (Heather); six grandchildren, Kaylee Inglett (Alec), Connor Brock, Katie Jo Brock, Caleb Brock, Autumn Kane and Ezra Kane; two great-grandchildren, Ventus Inglett and Iris Inglett; his parents; mother-in-law; two sisters and their husbands and a host of brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews who will miss him dearly.

John was more than a family man, he was a spiritual guide who raised his children to love the Lord, instilling in them values that will last generations. His legacy is one of love, faith and service and he will be profoundly missed but joyously remembered by all who knew him.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate John's life on Tuesday, January 14, 2025 at First Baptist Church of Vilonia. Family visitation will be at 10:00am with a celebration of life beginning at 11:00am. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the missions fund of First Baptist Church, Vilonia continuing his legacy of giving and service.
