John Edward Myers

Jack was a gifted mechanic all his life. There was nothing that he couldn’t fix or build. He was also an avid golfer and sports fan. He took great pride in his home and garden. He did most of the gardening himself. Neighbors saw him nearly every day when it wasn’t raining working in his flower beds.

Jack served on convoy duty in the Royal Canadian Navy for four and a half years during W.W. II, and was promoted to Chief Petty Officer.

Lillian Myers was his beloved wife of 49 1/2 years. She has been gone since 1998. After Jack’s retirement, they spent many years as snowbirds in southern California and Arizona. They loved pulling a trailer and exploring the southwest. Later in life, he reconnected with Kay Grondin, a friend he had first met 70 years before in Victoria. They enjoyed each other’s friendship until her passing in 2012.

Jack was a great story teller and he will be dearly missed. He has one daughter, Pamela Myers and a grandson, Thomas Takano.

He wanted everyone to know that he believed with all his heart in Jesus Christ.

There will be no services held.

Arrangements under the direction of Schaefer-Shipman Funeral Home, Marysville, WA.
