We will miss 'Jack", his path in life crossed ours many times. When Greg was a boy he lived on Peter St. in Markham and Jack and Joy and family lived right next door. Greg went through public and high school with Ginny, Graham and Leslie and then they moved to Paramount. When Christina and Greg got married we bought a house on Ramona Blvd. just two blocks from the Carson family. Greg played slow-pitch baseball for several years on a team sponsors by Carson & Weeks Insurance and even managed to win one title for them. In 1981 Greg started his own business and Jack's long time secretary Shirley Millet came to work for Greg and she always had kind words for Jack. Christina played tennis with Jack and never won, once though I was up 4-0 and he still won. Even after we moved to the west coast we spoke with Jack once or twice a year, the last time being Christmas 2012, and always received an annual Xmas card. Jack always had a smile and a kind word. He was a good neighbour and a good friend and a find gentleman. We will miss him. Christina and Greg Hoover
