The youngest of Abel and Rachel Boyd’s ten children, he was raised in the Annex area of Toronto. A Star athlete at Harbord Collegiate, he went on to serve Canada during WWII in the Army and the Air Force. Following the service he obtained his BPHE at U of T which led to his career in education.

His encore was as Principal at St. Albert’s Collegiate, a private school. A long time member of Caledon Ski Club and an East Bay cottager, Jack loved life and introduced the joys of cottaging and skiing to many. His sense of humour was legendary, his last witticism: “Jack is dead, pontoon boat for sale.” The family would like to thank the many health care professionals who cared for him. Jack will be cremated and a private service will be held later in Muskoka. Those who wish to help commemorate Jack’s contributions and impact to all our lives are invited to join his family on Sunday, June 25th at Caledon Ski Club’s West Hill Lodge, 17431 Mississauga Road, Belfountain.
