Worked with Jack for three years at 4 (F) Wing and he was a good friend who always had a smile. Was always nice to greet him and Shirley at the reunions. God Bless. - Posted by: Garnet McKeen (coworker, friend,) on: Nov 21, 2017

We send our sincere sympathy and deepest condolences to Shirley and all the family at this difficult time. Only regret that Jack was a Toronto Maple Leaf fan, could never convince him to switch to the Montreal Canadians. Thinking of you, be strong.

We are very sad to hear Jack has passed on. He was energetic, jolly, and always ready to "pitch in" and help his neighbours. Jack was a great guy and the best neighbour anyone could ever wish for!! - Posted by: Teresa and Neil (Good friends [former neighbours]) on: Nov 04, 2017
