September 21, 1955 - January 12, 2025
It is with heavy hearts that Jack, has passed away peacefully at the Sault Area Hospital.
He is the son of the late James and Arlie McMillan (Nee Pine). Cherished husband of Yvonne for 20 years. Proud father of the late Chris, late Chantelle, Jesse, Jamie, Christina, Jacob and Lucas. He was the proud "Papa" of many grandchildren and one great grandchild. He leaves behind his sister Brenda, Wendy, June, Leeann and the late Darlene. He will also be missed by his brothers Darryl, Dwight and the late Kevin. Special uncle to all the "sucky babies". Predeceased by many aunts and uncles. He was a proud member of Garden River First Nation (Echo River). His loss will be felt by many other friends and family.
Jack will be fondly remembered for being one hell of a heavy equipment operator. He was affectionately known by his family as a man with "9 lives". He had the best sense of humor and was the life of the party everywhere he went. In his free time, he enjoyed going for drives in the bush with his wife. He will be reunited with his devoted fur babies, Suzuki Kasey and will be missed by Gabby.
