Born and raised in Point-St. Charles, Jack was a staunch Canadian who later settled in Two Mountains to raise his family. He served in the Navy Reserves during his youth and was a dedicated member of the Legion, participating in the Remembrance Day Parade with unwavering pride. Jack actively volunteered for the Liberal Party in Quebec and the Green Party in Ontario. He was a proud alumnus of Concordia University and enjoyed a long and fulfilling career with CNCP Telecommunications in Montreal.
