Great uncle Jack lived up to that title, as far as I'm concerned. I always enjoyed our visits, few as they were (especially in more recent years), but I was really happy we got to share a family brunch while passing through Winnipeg a couple years ago. You'll be missed, Jack. You were one of the good ones. - Posted by: Stu McCuaig (Great nephew, if that's a thing.) on: May 25, 2026
