JON CLAUDE (JACK) LAROCQUE Beloved and devoted husband of Carol Larocque, passed away September 27, 2013, on the eve of their 50th wedding anniversary, with his wife and children by his side. Jack is survived by his wife Carol, son Stephen (Rosalie) granddaughter Jessica; daughter Crystal (Dave) grandchildren, Dylan, Joshua and Natasha; and son Richard. Aside from family, Jack had two passions in life: His proud service of 25 years with PPCLI and his love of woodworking. The family would like to thank CancerCare for their tremendous compassionate support and understanding toward the family and Jack during the time of his illness. Jack's wishes are being observed and cremation has taken place. If friends so desire, donations may be made in Jack's memory to any charity of their choice.

  • I was thinking today about all the people that have helped me in my life and Jack came to mind. He taught me how to work with power tools. This skill he taught me has served me well and I thought of Jack and Carol many times as I played with my power tools. I am so grateful for the time he took to teach me to use these tools. My condolences to the whole family. - Posted by: Joy Sonnichsen (Old acquantance) on: Feb 28, 2021
