Jack was born in Loon Lake Saskatchewan to a large farming family. He moved west to British Columbia as a young adult where he eventually started his lifelong career as a Longshoreman until he retired. He was well known for his quick sarcastic wit and kind heart. His family was always his #1 priority and he provided an excellent example of doing it right. He was predeceased by the love of his life (Ruby) in 2019 after celebrating more than 60 years of marriage.
He leaves behind his 4 children, Randy Ward, Valerie Martin (Wayne), Lloyd Ward and Larry Ward. Grandchildren, Scott Martin (Hali), Chantel Allen (Jeff), Kayla Ward, Jenna and Cameron Ward. Great Grandchildren Brody, Jordan, and Greyson Martin.
The Family would like to thank the beautiful souls that work at EDEN GARDENS in Nanaimo who took the best of care of both Ruby and Jack for the last few years of their lives. There kindness and compassion will never be forgotten.
A private family service will be held.
In lieu of flowers please make a donation to Eden Gardens 1917 Northfield Rd Nanaimo BC V9S 3B6.
