John F. "Jack" Muldowney "BB the B-Safe Clown", 87, of Manheim, PA, passed away peacefully on Monday, February 4th, 2019, at Good Samaritan Hospital in Lebanon, PA. He was the son of the late James Muldowney and Ella Brennan Muldowney. He was the husband of Patricia Muldowney with whom he would have celebrated their 28th wedding anniversary this May. Jack was born December 6, 1931, in Mount Carmel, PA and the 2nd of eight children. He was a 1950 graduate of Mount Carmel Catholic High School. Jack played football, acted in his high school's play productions, and was known as the "Class Clown". After a brief amateur boxing career, Jack entered the US Army and served in Germany during the Korean War. Jack later moved to New York City and was employed as a chauffeur. He had many stories of celebrity clients. In the late 1950's Jack appeared on the TV shows "Who Do You Trust," where he met Johnny Carson, and the game show "What's My Line." After moving to Lancaster in the late 1950's, Jack worked for the Bearings Company and later the PA Department of Labor and Industry as a State Safety Inspector, from which he retired in 1988. Jack had a passion for safety, especially fire safety, and it was during his career as a Safety Inspector that Jack's "clowning around" got serious. He created "BB the B-Safe Clown" in the late 1970's and traveled throughout PA and beyond teaching young children fire safety. He twisted common fairy tales around to contain a safety message such as Little Red Riding Hood including a fire extinguisher in her basket of goodies for grandma. His program was also part of a WGAL Saturday morning TV show, "The Incredible Dr. Dudd Show." His safety program went on to be recognized nationally. In addition to his career with the PA Department of Labor and Industry, Jack was co-owner of Pinch Pond Family Campground, Manheim, PA, for 42 years. Jack was a member of Saint Richard's Catholic Church, Manheim, PA. He was also a member of The Elstonville Sportsman's Association. Jack enjoyed many exciting trips with his wife Patricia, family, and friends, Ken and Evette Dimm. He loved music and singing, and he was never shy with a microphone. He also enjoyed watching game shows and listening to Willy's Roadhouse. He was an avid hunter, story and joke teller, and his laugh will be missed by many. In addition to his wife Patricia, Jack is survived by two daughters, Mary Dettinger (wife of Steve), and Ellen Tabar (wife of Donald); three step-daughters, Barb Kirchner, Beverly Misnik, and Jennifer Sheaffer (wife of Jason); eleven grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. Also, his sisters, Jane Muldowney and Kathy Simmons (wife of Jeff); sister-in-law, Loretta Muldowney, as well as many nieces and nephews. He is proceeded in death by his first wife, Barbara H. Muldowney; his daughter, Joanne Reese; his brothers, James, Raymond, and William, and sisters, Alice Serviss and Ann Marie Debolt.
