“His sudden passing will be felt deeply by all who knew him.” That’s what the East Alton Police Department posted on social media, Friday, following the death of Officer Jack Stalcup on Christmas Day.
The 69-year-old Stalcup had served in various capacities with EAPD since his retirement as a South Roxana police officer. He served 32 years there.
East Alton Police say Stalcup also worked with parks and recreation to coordinate youth sports and volunteered with village events.
Visitation is from four until seven Tuesday afternoon at Mark’s Mortuary in Wood River. The funeral service will be on Wednesday at eleven.
