William Harvey Jett, 73, of Madisonville, KY passed away on Wednesday, December 21, 2022, at his home.

He was born on February 17, 1949, in Jonesboro, AR to the late Reba Webb Grimsley. Harvey was a member of Victory Church in Madisonville. He loved music and his music career started at the young age of 18, when he left home to join the southern rock band, Black Oak Arkansas, as lead guitarist. The band had great success! Out of the first seven albums on which he played, three turned gold and one turned platinum. After many years of living the rock star life, it started to take its toll with a different city every night and no anchor. It was then he started to fill a call on his life. He came face to face with the decision to either continue to lead young people down the wrong path of the rock star lifestyle or follow God's plan for his life. He chose the latter and never looked back.

In addition to his mother, he was preceded in death by his sister, Debbie Daniels; and his grandparents that lovingly raised him, Versie S. and Dumas Raymond Webb.

Survivors include his wife of thirty years, Teresa Hall Jett; sons, Kyle (Allison) Jett of Monroe, LA and Chad (Erin) Mitchell of Nortonville, KY; daughters, Hollie (Shaun) Bayles of Springdale, AR, Jessica (Tanner) Benham of Bowling Green, KY and Tina (Rick) White of Lafayette, TN; brothers, Eddie Grimsley of Ravenden, AR and David Grimsley of Dallas, TX; sister, Jerrie Lynn-DeLoach of Ravenden; many grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.

A memorial service will be held at 1 p.m. on Thursday, December 29, 2022, at Victory Church, 615 Brown Rd. Madisonville, KY with Pastor Kris Goodman officiating. A burial will be held at a later date in Jonesboro, AR. Harris Funeral Home in Madisonville was entrusted with care.

A visitation will be held from 11 a.m. until the service hour Thursday at the church.
