Died 13 August 2026Posted 14 August 2026

Passed away peacefully at home on Thursday, August 13, 2026. After a long and memorable run, Jack has headed to the great racetrack in the sky, where the beer is always cold and there's never a speed limit. Much loved husband of Mon for 52 years, treasured father and father-in-law of Craig and Kristy, Matt and Adrienne, and Regan and Emma, and Tracy. Adored "Jack" of Tyler, Danica, Lucy, Ella, Dario and Fletcher, and dearly loved brother and brother-in-law of Laraine and Jim. Known for his love of motorsport, his appreciation of a cold beer, and his ability to solve most of life's problems from a bar stool. In respect of Jack's wishes, a private family farewell has been held. For everyone else, Jack would much rather you joined us for drinks from 2.00pm on Saturday, August 15, at Sopheze On The Bay to swap stories and celebrate his great life.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Cancer Society would be appreciated.
