John NASH

NASH, John "Jack" Portsmouth
April 27, 1933 - December 12, 2017
On December 12, 2017 in Amherstburg at the age of 84, after visiting with family and friends, John passed away peacefully watching the ships go by, while listening to the sounds of Frank Sinatra. John has joined his late wife Evelyn (2003) and is dancing under the stars. John was predeceased by his parents Claude and Marion Nash (Edgewater Beach, Amherstburg) and his siblings Fred Nash and Edith (Nash) Cory. John will be missed by his big brother and lifetime fishing partner Robert Nash (Sheila Nash). John is survived by his children Scott Nash and Lisa (Nash), Lisa's husband Chris Lawlor and daughter Jaiden Paige Nash Stiles. Grandpa and Grandma Ev will now both be watching over their beautiful granddaughter. Grandpa loved to hear the highlights of Jaiden's hockey and fastpitch games! Uncle Jack will be missed by many nieces and nephews in both the U.S. and Canada. He was the guy that never gave in. John was passionate in his beliefs about the Great Lakes high water issues and weather modification. He had a charming personality, was blessed with the gift of gab, enjoyed a good game of cards or cribbage and loved watching golf or going metal detecting. A special thank you to the doctors, nurses and staff at Y. Emara - Palliative unit for their exceptional compassionate care. In keeping with John's wishes no funeral was held and cremation has taken place. A celebration of John's life will be held at a later date in spring. Arrangements entrusted to
