Edward Louis Jackson

d. March 16, 2017

Edward Jackson was born with fiery instincts and the heart of a gentleman. In his life, there was always a sporting event to watch, a Western to read, ponies to study, a fine outfit to flaunt, and another 18 holes to enjoy. Last Thursday, after a battle with lung cancer, he passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by loved ones. Edward taught his beloved daughters, Kanika and Jacqueline, to be proud of their black womanhood, the value of education, the joy of music (and moves to match), the power of belly-aching laughter, and the importance of never compromising who you are. Edward was a devoted husband, who treasured his wife, Loti, and the solace she brought him in his final days. He will also be dearly missed by his cherished mother, Elouise, his sisters Charlotte, Dorothy (& Billy), and Lela (pre-deceased), mother-in-law Charlotte, in-laws Rosemari (& Walid), Heidi (& Tim), Veronica (& Mike), and Paul, grandchildren Samantha, Sydney and Zoe, as well as extended family and friends. At the end of his journey, he embodied the grace, dignity, patience and determination with which he lived his life. We are left with a legacy strong enough to carry us all forward, gentle enough to keep us all warm. We are honoured to love and remember his spirit forever. A Celebration of Life will be held at Cordova Bay Golf Course on Saturday, April 15th, at 2 p.m.
