JACK Mildred Passed away peacefully at the Brock Fahrni Pavillion in Vancouver, B.C., on December 11, 2009 at the age of 89. Mildred was predeceased by her loving husband James and her two sisters Elinor Kerry and Pearle Cree as well as her granddaughter Amanda Jack. She is lovingly remembered by her son Brian Jack, daughter Dianne Meyer, daughter and son-in-law, Valerie and Bill Kendrick and daughter Allyson Emmons. She was proud of and devoted to her grandchildren Bill Meyer, Toshia (Scott) Wagner, Graham (Megan) Kendrick, Evan Kendrick, Dennis (Heidi) Jack, Jake Emmons and Marissa Emmons and to her five great-grandchildren. She will be missed by her many nieces, nephews and friends. Our deepest gratitude goes to her wonderful companion Yolanda and to the very caring staff at the Brock Fahrni Pavillion where Mildred spent her final years. There will be no funeral per her request. In lieu of flowers Mildred supported the Parkinson's Society and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. We the family will always remember her words to us - BE GOOD.
