In Loving Memory of Jack Fields

The Kerrville Folk Festival Foundation joins our community in remembering Jack Fields, who passed away last week.

Jack served as President of the Quiet Valley Ranch Board, offering steady leadership, thoughtful counsel, and deep care for the land and the people who gather on it each year. His work often happened behind the scenes, but his impact will be felt for generations to come.

Jack was never much on seeking the spotlight. He preferred the work to the applause. Yet his love for the Festival and this extended family was unmistakable. He believed in what happens here: the music, the friendships, the traditions, and the sense of belonging that brings us back year after year.

We do not have many photographs of Jack, which feels fitting in a way. He was not a limelight kind of man. But his presence was steady and sincere, and we are grateful for the years he gave to Quiet Valley Ranch and to this community.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones. May his memory be a blessing, and may the Ranch he helped steward continue to echo with song.
