February 7, 1931 – February 3, 2023

On Friday, February 3, 2023 Jack Edgar David Weller of Kamloops passed away days short of his 92nd birthday.

He will be remembered for his happy-go-lucky nature, making friends wherever he went, and his sense of humor.

Born February 7, 1931, in London, England, the youngest of seven children. As a young boy Jack experienced the terrible bombings of WWII.

After the war, he served in the British military and traveled the world with the merchant navy, and later served in the Canadian Army reserves.

He came to Canada in 1950 where he learned the plumbing and pipefitting trade, and began his lifetime of work in that field.

He met his soon to be wife Judy while living in Toronto, and they were married in London, Ontario in 1966. Work brought them to British Columbia where their son Mark was born in 1968 and their daughter Jackie in 1972.

From 1977 to the mid eighties, Jack worked as the townsite plumber of Mica Creek, and later worked in Revelstoke. Jack and Judy retired to Penticton in 1995, moving to Kamloops to be close to family in 2017.

Jack was predeceased by his wife Judy and is survived by daughter Jackie Martens and son in law Mike and grandchildren Ashley and Nathan, of Kamloops. Also by his son Mark Weller and daughter in law Janet, and grandchildren Jeneva, Charlotte, Michael and Celine of Irvine, California.

Jack enjoyed reading and gardening, loved old cars, and had a passion for the ocean. Jack was a proud member of the Plumbers Union for 70 years.
