Jack, a native and lifelong resident of Franklin, passed away at the age of 73 
on Wednesday, May 20, 2015, at Franklin Foundation Hospital. Jack was a 
longtime employee of the City of Franklin, retiring as a city clerk at the age 
of 63, following 33 years of dedicated service. He was actively involved in 
local youth athletics, especially baseball. A loving pawpaw to his two 
grandsons and a wonderful father to his three children, it was evident that 
Jack's passion in life was his family. He will be fondly remembered and deeply 
missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

Survivors include his daughter, Tara Derouen and husband Scott; his sons, Leon 
Benedietto and Lance Benedietto; his grandsons, Nico and Teo Derouen; his 
sister, Agnes Benedietto; his former wife of 32 years, Althea Benedietto; as 
well as his nieces and nephew, Randy Benedietto, Roxanna Camporese and Cheryl 
Benedietto.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Leon and Bernice Tamporello 
Benedietto; an infant brother, Angelo Benedietto; as well as an adult brother, 
Angelo Benedietto.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Ibert's Mortuary, Inc., 1007 Main Street, 
Franklin, LA
