Sandra Jack passed away peacefully at home Monday July 4 in her 77th year surrounded by her close friends Debbie Cook, Krista Tabur, Lynda Maxwell, and Wendy Kane after a courageous battle with cancer. Sandy was a teacher and Librarian at LCVI for most of her teaching career, and she finished her time in education as a vice principal at I. E. Weldon. Sandy was a tremendous life-force and an active member of the community. She also served several terms on Lindsay’s town council and later as a board member and board chair at Fleming College. She was a natural communicator, storyteller, and people-connector and she touched the lives of many students and members of her community over the years. Sandra is the beloved daughter of Leslie Jack and his late wife Marion (Kerr). She is predeceased by her life-partner, Terry Worobec who will be interred with her. She will be greatly missed by her step-sons Daniel, Christopher, and Matthew. She will be remembered dearly by her aunt June Stewart (late Doug Stewart), and uncle Clayton Kerr (Fay Kerr), along with her many cousins.

Sandra’s family wishes to invite family and friends to a funeral service to honour Sandra’s life on Saturday, September 24th at 2:00 p.m. at Cambridge Street United Church, 61 Cambridge Street North, Lindsay. The service will also be live-streamed at www.theunitedchurch.com. A private family interment will follow.

The family would like to express heartfelt thanks to the nurses at the Ross Memorial Hospital, Dr. McMillian and the hospice staff team along with pharmacist Cathy Puffer. Dr. Forbes of Oshawa Cancer Care is also gratefully acknowledged. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Ross Memorial Hospital Foundation for Palliative Care, or the Lakeridge Health Foundation (R. S. McLaughlin Regional Cancer Centre), would be appreciated.

Sandy delighted in plotting pranks, voicing her opinions on a huge array of topics, and we will long remember her laughter, which had a mischievous chuckle at its core. She had a heart of gold and maintained treasured lifelong friendships. Sandy always had time for others and she gathered many in her circle of friends and relatives to celebrate her father’s 100th birthday last summer. She found joy throughout her life in her family, her work, travel, her support of community organizations, and her many hobbies and bucket-list of accomplishments. Sandra will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by all who knew her.
