Jeffrey was a loving husband to Ynolde Veira (nee James) for over 45 years, and a dedicated father to Darren (Emily) and Rachel (Travis). He was also an adoring Grandpa to Denise, Whitney and Tamia. Jeffrey passed away peacefully at home, surrounded with love from his wife and children. We will all miss him dearly.
Dear son to the late Michael Veira and brother to the late Brian Veira (Monica). He predeceased his mother, Esther Veira (nee King), and his sisters, Juliette Cumberbatch (Robert), Annette Gibson (late Dennis), Christine Benjamin (late Dickson "Benji" Sr), Angella De Abreu (Peter), and Donna St Hilaire (Errol). He will be fondly remembered by his extended family and friends.
Jeffrey was a proud Vincentian, born and raised in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. He immigrated to Canada in 1975, eventually settling in Guelph, Ontario with his wife and children. He was a respected member of the community and a successful businessman, directing five centers with Young Drivers of Canada. He loved cars, to travel and, above all else, spending time with his family.
