Jacque was born September 16, 1940 in Stanley, ND to Harlan and Evelyn Wing. He had 4 brothers, Jerry, Dick, Hap and Skip. He graduated from Stanley High School and went to Moler Barber College in Fargo. Later on, he went to Western College of Auctioneering in Billings Montana. He was owner and operator of Jacques Barber Shop, the West Side Lounge, Wing’s Auction Service, read meters for Mountrail Williams Electric and owned a farm where he raised cattle.
Jacque truly loved Stanley North Dakota. He did many years of community service where he was a councilman, mayor, Jaycee’s member, roping club, a founding member of the ambulance service and more. He announced the Stanley 4th of July parade for over 40 years.
Jacque loved horses, cattle and ranching. His auctioneer days consisted of estate auctions and cattle auctions at Sitting Bull Auction in Williston. He was a HUGE Vikings fan, Twins fan and Bison football fan. He loved Purple Martins, watching his garden grow, playing cards and cribbage. Many hours in the barber shop were spent playing cribbage with his buddies. He loved his life. His days consisted of visiting Skip in his office, cruising main on Whiplash, and going to the casino to play 3-card poker and slot machines.
Jacque was truly an amazing dad and grandpa. His family was the most important thing in his life, including Whiplash. The streets of Stanley will be quieter without Jacque riding Whiplash all over town, something he loved to do. He loved spending time with his kids and taking pictures at family events. The walls in his house were fully covered with pictures of kids and grandkids.
Jacque is preceded in death by his parents Harlan and Evelyn Wing, Brothers Jerry, Hap and Dick. His surviving brother Skip lives in Stanley and maintained a close relationship for all of his life. His son Scott lives in Minneapolis with wife Jennifer and Callie (16) and Bradley (13). His daughter Lisa lives in DeMoines, Iowa with husband Dave. Her sons Joshua(28) and Jorey(25) live and work in North Dakota.
Thank You
The family would like to thank the Trinity hospital system for the excellent care Jacque received in the last few months of his life. From the Trinity Cancer Center to the Trinity Hospital to the Trinity Nursing Home, his care team was caring and well-coordinated. They went above and beyond in many instances and we are extremely grateful.
