I worked with Jack. He goes down in history in my books as being the kindest, thoughtful principal. My mother was in hospital three hours away, suffering after heart surgery. Jack came to me to ask how I was doing and I broke in tears. He reached out in kindness and said you go, be with her we’ll look after things here. Stay as long as necessary. What an amazing principal he was. With sincere condolences. Carol Dudgeon

I had the good fortune to meet Jack and Jacquie while they were on vacation in Portugal and felt an instant liking for this dynamic duo, but only after watching the celebration of his life did I feel I knew Jack. My sincere condolences to Jacquie and all the family on the loss of such a wonderful person.
That is quite the legacy Jack leaves behind. The tributes and stories were poignant and revealing, the poem written and delivered by his grand daughter a testament to the influence he had on his grandchildren. I feel privileged to have participated in the service from afar and my thoughts are with you all as you cope with the challenges of your loss. Janice Blain

Dear Jacquie, Jennifer and Brent,
I was sorry to learn of Jack’s recent passing. We hadn’t seen each other recently, but I
remember, with smiles, your family’s active involvement in all aspects of life at Ryerson
United Church, Hamilton. Jack, and you, too, Jacquie, were willing volunteers in countless
leadership roles within our church and in the wider community as well.
I know that Jack’s and your service to others continued when you moved to the Sauble community.
Jack was a kind and selfless person who made this world a better place. He and his wonderful smile
will be deeply missed.

Dear Jacquie, Brent & Jen: We got to know Jack shortly after we moved to Sauble Beach in 1998 and you still had the cottage on Oxford Cres. Many happy memories from back then. Jack surely was an anchor in our church and was liked by eveyone for his friendly positive manner and perseverance in spades. He is missed already. We feel he will still be with you in spirit, Jacquie, encouraging you along the path you both shared.

Dear Jackie, Brent and Jennifer.
Gifts, like Jack, come along but rarely, during ones lifetime. The consummate motivator and visionary educator, Jack was one of the chief influences on the lives of anyone who was lucky enough to have worked with him on a school staff. He had that sixth sense, too, when he was able to encourage one to jump at change opportunities that would challenge professional growth. Jack was highly respected and held in terms of professional friendship by his staff and the void he has left will not be filled. Our memories, well formed whilst we worked together with this colleague, shall endure the tests of time. Held in most positive and grateful terms, are both Jack and Jackie, who thought enough of this writer to travel all the way down from Sauble Beach to attend my ordination at Port Elgin. So, too, the memories of Brent and Jennifer whilst at Camp Wanakita, where both Jack and Jackie worked during the summer holidays... Golden times all. Holding each of you in daily prayer for peace and strength and love of family.
Rev. Charlie Hogg
Interim Minister at Ryerson United Church,
Hamilton

Dear Jacquie and family members. How very sorry we were to hear of Jack's passing and want to assure you of our thoughts and prayers at this time. We share the pain of your loss and offer our deepest condolences. We remember with much joy and gratitude the first time you entered the Zion-Amabel United Church. You immediately became part of our church family and eventually took on many leadership roles that proved instrumental in helping our church grow and fulfil its mission in the Sauble Beach community. Jack was always a man with a huge smile and a personality to match that persistent smile. How special he was and how much he will be missed by all who knew him. Jack was a true Christian gentleman who faced the challenges of deteriorating health with grace and faith. We are sorry we cannot be with you at the service but ask that God may bless you, Jacquie, and all your loved ones in this time of loss and may God also give you comfort in knowing that Jack is in His hands and at peace.
