Custom Body Works is sad to announce the passing of our owner, Jack Hoke.

Jack enjoyed over 45 years of proudly leading his company to become a trusted and quality collision repair center for the greater Hickory area. Jack made many friends along the way and will be greatly missed by us all.

A service to celebrate Jack’s life will be held at 3:00 pm, Sunday, February 15, 2026, at Bass-Smith Funeral Home with Rev. Dr. Deborah Frye officiating. The family will receive friends prior to the service from 1:00 – 3:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to Collision Repair Education Foundation at collisionrepaireducationfoundation.org.

We appreciate your thoughts and prayers at this time.
