LEAVITT, Jack Lee March 8, 1934 July 9, 2007 B. Ed (U. of Alberta), M. Sc (U. of Oregon), D. Ed. (U. of California, Berkeley) Today, I lost my best friend after fifty-one years of marriage and many more years of friendship. Jack was Professor Emeritus, marathon runner, ski instructor, little league coach, aspiring golfer, and mentor to many. He was an incredible father to Randy (Pam), Barry (Susana), Barbara (Glen) and Dana; a wonderful Grampo to Kristy, Shari, Jonathan, Campbell and Analee. He also leaves his sisters Lorna Cameron and Carol Williams (Bill). Jack did his last mile at home in Canmore, Alberta, in the mountains where we met and fell in love. He lived a full, active and inspiring life, and had a lot of fun along the way with family and friends. A celebration of a life well-lived will be held at a later date in Windsor, Ontario. In lieu of flowers, and to remember Jack, spend a day with your family, buy yourself a ski pass, have a golf vacation, or enter a fun run. I am truly blessed to have been part of his life. I will miss him dearly, Doris BOW RIVER FUNERAL SERVICE assisting the family. Email info@bowriverfuneral.com. Phone: 1-403-678-4880. Published in the Calgary Herald on 7/13/2007
