Jack Herbert Robertson

July 16th, 1934 - November 3rd, 2024
Jack Herbert Robertson

Jack Robertson passed away on Sunday, November 3, 2024 at the age of 90 years old.

He will be lovingly remembered by his children, Jerri Robertson ( Glen Gardipy), Laurie Massey, and Dan Robertson ( Myron Myer); grandchildren, Erin Massey ( Dallas Desjardin), Mia Massey; and great-grandchild, Madelyn Desjardin; along with many extended family and friends. He was predeceased by wife, Jeannette and sons, Jordan and Robin; parents, Jim and Lyla Robertson; siblings, Loy , Leon, Joyce, Larry and Romelda. He is survived by his sister, Gloria Bayne.

Jack lived his life local in Dog Pound, Bottrel, Cremona, and Crossfield area. He worked mostly farming- grain, hay, cattle, sheep, but also rode the rodeo circuit, and did race horse training. He loved fishing, coaching hockey, tinkering with old cars, horse racing and driving around to visit family and friends. Jack was a big tease and prankster and would belly laugh when he “got you”. He was also kind to others and helped when he could.

Thank you to staff and friends at Chinook Winds Lodge in Carstairs, and Bethany in Didsbury.

My Dad used to tell us stories from when they were young guys at rodeos, the best ones always involved Jack. Eating the goldfish was the best one!!

Jack was very special in my heart. My earliest memories of him were his wonderful laugh, sense of humour, and his generous spirit. We shared some of those memories not too long before his passing. Much love to all.
