It is with great sadness that we announce that Jack William Ford, age 22 our most precious son, brother, family member and friend passed away October 28, 2024 at his residence in New Westminster, BC. Jack was born November 19, 2001 in Victoria, BC.
Jack touched the hearts of everyone fortunate enough to know him. His brilliance, boundless curiosity, and passion for creative expression and music made him truly one of a kind. Jack saw the world through a lens uniquely his own, deeply cherished by those who took the time and care to genuinely understand him. A kind and sensitive soul, he was a gift to those who loved him, feeling everything with profound intensity—whether it was pain, love, joy, or connection.
Jack’s vibrant spirit and deep desire to explore and understand the human experience brought meaning and joy to the lives of those around him. His presence was unforgettable, leaving an imprint of laughter, music, and love that will forever be cherished. While we grieve his loss, we carry forward the memories of the laughter he sparked, the music he created, and the love he shared so freely. Though his journey was not without challenges, Jack’s enduring spirit and the impact he had on those who knew him will forever be a part of his legacy.
Jack will be missed everyday by his Mother, Donna Dyer, Father, Derek Ford, Step Father, Franck Lay, Sister, Ivy Ford, his Partner, Grey Kellner, his second family (the Passalacquas), extended family and many friends.
We invite you to Jack’s memorial service May 3, 2025 at Centennial Lodge, Queen’s Park, New Westminster, BC at 1pm.
