Mr. Jack Edward Moller

It is with great sadness that the family of Jack Moller announces his passing after a long battle with cancer. He was born in Vancouver, one of six children to Mary and Jacob Moller. Survived by his loving wife Janet, daughter Marnie Gordon (Don), son Bryan (Leyanne), step-daughters Sherry Aoki (Michael) and Sandra Stemmler (Trevor), step-son Steven Stemmler, sisters Joan Fleck, Pat Bell, Anne Ivanich, brother Robert, seven grandchildren, previous spouse Elizabeth Thalen and many other relatives and friends. He was predeceased by his parents, sister Lillian Smithson and brother-in-law Don Bell.

Jack was employed by Broadway Printers for over thirty years. He became very knowledgeable about printing as he started working on the presses. He eventually went on to work in sales and developed many good friendships throughout his career. Even after his retirement, Jack kept in touch with colleagues, and always looked forward to their luncheons.

Jack was an avid outdoorsman who loved camping and fishing with family and friends. He loved being out on the water and always got excited when he heard the zing of his reel, hoping he had finally caught "Walter".

Jack's yard was the envy of the neighbourhood! He took great pride in his lawn and beautiful garden and enjoyed many hours sitting under the tree

How Jack loved his sports! He was a very well-respected coach and over the years, coached many hockey, lacrosse and football teams, especially enjoying the time he spent with the ones that his children, Marnie and Bryan, played on. After his coaching career ended, Jack still supported his children and his grandchildren by attending as many of their games as he could, often offering words of encouragement from the stands. Jack spent many years playing hockey with the Friday Knights team at 8-Rinks and enjoyed attending their social events even after he was no longer skating with them. The neighbourhood often knew how either the Canucks or BC Lions teams were doing when they played, as Jack's voice could be heard cheering or groaning as he watched every game from his favourite spot on the couch.

Jack enjoyed round dancing and square dancing with both the Swinging Singles and the Chuckwagon 8's and held an executive position for many years. He was passionate about Bridge and always enjoyed a good card game of any sort with family and friends. Jack was made an Honorary Member of the Dogwood Songsters as he was always there in the front row to support them.

Jack lived a busy and well-rounded life. Family and tradition were very important to him. He had many dear friends and will be sadly missed by all who knew him.

Jack put up a strong fight against cancer for many years and his family would like to thank the doctors at the BC Cancer Agency, Dr. Lutsky, the home care nurses and the staff at St Michael’s Hospice. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Jack's name to the BC Cancer Agency.
