Obituary for Jack Tizzard -Kingsville Celebration Centre
It is with great sadness we share that Jack passed away peacefully on Wednesday, December 14th, 2022, after a short battle with leukaemia. Beloved husband of Dawn for 61 years, loving dad to Judy (Ian) and Karyn, and cherished Grampi to Olivia, Emma, Taylor, Noah and Troy. Survived by his sister Marlene and in-laws Eleanor, Lorraine, Ruth, Helen, Brenda and Chuck. Predeceased by sisters, brother, brothers-in-law and sister-in-law, Thelma, Joan (Al), Doreen (Joe), Roy, Terry, Ted, Bill (Audrey) and John. “Favourite Uncle Jack” to his nieces and nephews, dear friend of Jackie Maxey and friend to many.
Jack was a letter carrier for Canada Post for 35 years in Weston and enjoyed talking to people as he delivered the mail. He grew up in Toronto and Georgetown, settling in Mississauga for many years. He and Dawn moved to Kingsville in 1998 when Jack retired, where they made many friends. He enjoyed playing cards, riding his bike around town and walking with friends. He had a lifelong passion for hockey, playing for many years, as an enthusiastic spectator and assisting the Kingsville Kings. He was a diehard Toronto Maple Leaf fan and followed them religiously. Jack was happiest when he was with Dawn and his family and particularly enjoyed weeks at the cottage fishing with the grandkids. We will miss his playful sense of humour.
As per the family's request, cremation has taken place.
