He will be lovingly missed by his wife, Loretta (Kerr); his daughters Sharyl (Bob), Brenda (Doug); son Drew (Jodi); and grand-children Mark, Joshua, Cara, Emma and Sarah. Jack was always quietly proud of his children and grandchildren's achievements. Jack was born and educated in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba. He was predeceased by his parents Stewart and Lillian (Huckle) Carmichael, his brother Keith and sister-in-law Ruth. He is survived by his older brother Alston, sister-in-law Gaylene Carmichael and sister-in-law Marion (Doug) Fulton, nieces and nephews. Jack enjoyed curling, golfing, fishing, electronic projects, ham radio operating and his computer. Most of all he enjoyed many long-time friends, especially childhood friend and faithful visitor these past years, Don Sutherland. Jack joined the Cornerstone/Phoenix Masonic Lodge in 1970 and was Master of the Lodge in 1990. He joined the Khartum Shrine in 1985, was President of the Patrol Unit in 1990 and also President of the Drum & Bugle Corps in 1994. Jack started with the Canadian National Railway (CNR) in July, 1956 and was an employee for 19 years. He accepted the position of Signal System Officer with the Canadian Transport Commission in 1975 and retired in 1992. He was a true and faithful husband and an even greater friend. Cremation has taken place and a service celebrating Jack's life will be held on Saturday, November 2, 2013 at St. James Presbyterian Church, 1476 Portage Avenue at 2:00 p.m. The Rev. Brenda Fraser will be officiating. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to charity of your choice.

Our condolences to Loretta and family. Jack will be missed, we will remember all the good times together. Sleep in peace with kindred ashes Of the noble and the true; Hands that never failed their country, Hearts that never baseness knew, Sleep until the Final Trumpet Awakes the dead, to die no more We shall meet again, our Brother on that distant, hallowed shore.

Memories come flooding back. Summer days when Jack and Aunt Lily came to Raymore on the train. They would stay for several weeks each summer. Although they stayed with grandparents in the town of Raymore we saw Jack every day. In those hot days of summer Jack and my brother George explored the prairie. Those leisure days were precious. All too soon we grew up and our lives crossed once more when Jack and Loretta and kids lived in Saskatoon. Those days were precious as were weddings and times we spent with you! I shall always appreciate Jack's sense of humor and his love of family. This comes to you with my love.
