On the evening of September 7, 2017 our beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend John(“Jack”) Woolford passed away after many years of bravely contending with the ravages of Multiple System Atrophy. MSA could not touch the love, humour, wisdom and kindness for which Jack was best known.
Jack is predeceased by his mother Barbara, father Cyril, and twin brother Bill. Left to mourn and find comfort in his memory are the love of his life, his wife Linda, his children Glenn(Lorraine), Darlene(Mike), and Andrew(Jessica). His adoring grandchildren Jenna, Matthew and Ella will miss him dearly along with his brother Don(Nonie), and his sisters, Thelma(Bruce), and Jean(Dave – deceased). Jack was born in Duncan B.C. and attended Royal Oak High school and later joined the Navy in 1957. Jack and Linda were married in 1962 and he was drafted to Cornwallis, N.S. in 1965.
In 1969 he retired from the Navy and became employed by the Greater Victoria School Board as a custodian. He worked his way up to Supervisor of Operations and retired in 1995. He was a member of the Optimists Club, Chief and PO`s Association, Royal Canadian Legion and the Esquimalt Church of the Nazarene. We wish to thank Dr. Peter Meyer, Veterans, and the staff of St. Elizabeth for all of the care and consideration given.
A Celebration of Life will be held at the First Church of the Nazarene on 4277 Quadra St. at 1:00 pm on Friday, September 15, 2017. In lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to the charity of your choice. Condolences may be offered to the family below.
