It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Johnathan Ryan Jacobs on August 23rd, in his 48th year, after a battle with cancer.
John was a proud father to his cherished daughter, Caitlin Laura Winnifred Jacobs. He will be deeply missed by his father, Gary; his sister, Amanda (Adam); and his beloved nieces and nephews: Josh, Mercy, Kai, and Greyson. He is lovingly remembered and now rests back in the arms of his mother, Winnifred Jacobs.
Predeceased by his grandparents—Norman and Gladys Jacobs, and Leander and Ethelwyn Wrightman—John also leaves behind many aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, and especially his best friend who will hold his memory close.
Known for his sharp wit and infectious laugh, John was a passionate gamer, movie enthusiast, and collector. He found great joy in spending time with family, especially sharing his love of games and films with Caitlin and his nieces and nephews. In his younger years, he enjoyed playing soccer and baseball, the latter of which he proudly played under the guidance of his father as coach.
A former student of the University of Windsor, John encouraged Caitlin’s love of animals, even gifting her first pets—including a beloved guinea pig named Pirate.
