It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Hugh John Jackson, a loving and devoted father, grandfather, and great grandfather. Hugh left this world peacefully at the age of 87, on January 26, 2025. Born on December 10, 1937, in Wilberforce, Ontario, Hugh had a fulfilling life. Hugh is survived by his loving daughter Cheryl and son Paul. He was a cherished father-in- law to Raymond and Marie-Eve. Among his greatest joys were his grandchildren Christopher, Jeffrey and Julia Champoux, Louis and Antoine Jackson and great grandchildren Hallie, Hannah and Espen Champoux, who will forever carry his memory in their hearts. Hugh was predeceased by his high school sweetheart and beloved wife Nancy (nee Gorsline), whom he shared 64 wonderful years with. Hugh was also predeceased by his parents Arthur and Madeline and his brother Alan whose memories continue to live in the hearts of those who knew them. Hugh enjoyed fishing, golfing and in later years embraced woodcarving. His passion for this art produced many intricate and beautiful pieces which will be treasured by his family for years to come. Even before leaving high school Hugh became an educator. His first teaching job was a one room schoolhouse on Schoharie Road. His teaching career took him to Peterborough, Richmond Hill, Pembroke and then back to Prince Edward County in 1976 where he found his life calling. During the next five decades Hugh forged a career as a much-respected real estate broker. His compassion and generosity were well-known in The County as was his beaming smile. He has left an indelible impression on those he touched with his kindness. In keeping with Hugh’s wishes cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will be held in the Spring. The family of Hugh would like to thank the staff of Hospice Prince Edward; Debbie and Dale Courneyea and the many healthcare workers who assisted Dad to remain as long as possible at home. If desired, in lieu of flowers donations to the Hospice Prince Edward or to the Loyalist Humane Society in his honour would be appreciated by the family.
