In retirement, he enjoyed volunteering with the Kelowna Warriors Lacrosse Club. Jack was predeceased by his parents Francis James and Susannah (née Marley) and his siblings Myrtle, Frank, Russell, Mary Ellen, Clarence and Violet. He is survived by his loving wife Sharon; children Michael, Diane and Heather; granddaughter Alli; and many extended family members.
