PETRIE, Jack Melville (1914-2006)
Suddenly and peacefully at home in his 92nd year. Jack PETRIE, beloved husband of Phyllis (née CLIPPERTON) for 54 years, and devoted, cherished father of Debra and son-in-law Lee (MALES,) Kent and friend Tammie, and Leah and son-in-law Peter; grandchildren Graham, Erica, Ashley, Jordan and Shawn. Predeceased by daughter Donna (1961) and son Alan (1999), brothers Lorne, Bill, Glen, Ken, Bud, and sister Lenore. Survived by sister Olive and Steven MANLEY, sisters-in-law Hazel PETRIE and Jean PETRIE and a large extended family. To know Jack was to immediately like him. He always greeted you with a smile, a mischievous twinkle in his eye and a little chuckle as if to say "I've been waiting for you to arrive, now let's enjoy ourselves". A lifelong resident of the London area, Jack worked at Kellogg's up to his retirement in 1979. Apart from work, his private life revolved around his family and many interests. In his younger years he would have been called a sportsman. He excelled at everything he did. All at one time, he was a scratch golfer, a city-wide champion bowler, horseshoe player, marksman, billiard player and raised gamecocks for sport. He loved to tinker and was an accomplished musician, mastering many instruments including the fiddle, guitar, harmonica, piano and mandolin, playing daily right up to the time of his passing. Jack had a passion for old-time country music and one of his hobbies was to play the fiddle at impromptu gatherings and jambories around the area, and continued to do so into his mid-eighties. He never had a bad word to say about anyone and he loved to entertain people. Apart from his music, he would keep us laughing for hours with stories of his youth, events and mishaps along the way. Jack enjoyed life, lived well and never lost his youthful zeal. As a result of his many interests and considerable charisma, Jack accumulated a long list of lifelong Friends, and will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him. To Dr. Hugh ROONEY, thank you for your diligent care. To our mother Phyllis who, out of love, so dutifully tended to his every want and need; Beauty and youth are fleeting, but grace and memories endure. Friends may pay their last respects at the A. Millard George Funeral Home, 60 Ridout Street South, London on Sunday, January 15th between the hours of 2: 00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m..
