DR. JAQUE V. MASON
1932- 2022
Dr. Jaque Verner Mason, of Kincardine, passed away peacefully at Huron Shores Hospice in Tiverton on Sunday, Nov. 27, 2022, in his 91st year.
Jaque leaves behind his wife Eileen Fair, son Keith Mason, stepsons Garry (Jeannette), Steve (Karen) and Kevin (Lesley), stepdaughter Patti (Ron) MacKay and by 24 step-grandchildren and 15 step-great-grandchildren.
He was predeceased by his parent Joe and Jaquelin (Duggan) Mason and his first wife Patricia (Allan) Mason.
Jaque was born and grew up on Miami, Florida. He got his Bachelor of Science from the University of Florida, his Masters from the University of Georgia and his PhD in Biochemistry from the University of North Carolina. He was a veteran of the U.S. Army.
He moved to Canada in 2017 and eventually became a permanent resident.
As per Jaque’s wishes, no funeral service will be held here. Cremation has taken place, and his ashes will go to South Carolina to lay to rest with his first wife.
I was so sorry to hear about Jaque’s death, but glad he enjoyed his last years with Eileen. I remember visiting with him on the day he was packing to leave Summerville. He was so happy about marrying her. I am also sorry I will be out of town on the 10th. There may be those here that want to give a memorial to SPC in memory of Jaque, so could we have an address for sending acknowledgements ? Thank you.
