Jerry, “UKE” KANCER
“UKE” KANCER, Jerry November 17,1949 – April 15, 2017 Proudly born in Val-d’Or Quebec, Jerry had a love of streaking, karaoke, Neil Diamond, the Red Sox and most of all, making people laugh. Son of Walter and Alla, dad and best friend to Jesse. Grandpa to Austin and Sierra (his bumblebees). Jerry loved to travel, make new friends and “yuk it up”. He spent many years at Canpar, “drinking the Woodies and delivering the goodies” and once he retired, started taking frequent walks from the couch to the fridge between innings and periods. His house was always open to his friends and you could always find people on Woodworth Drive bonding over losing proline tickets, beers, music, and poker. Always quick to share his dislike of the Blue Jays and Maple Leafs and full of “one liners”, Jerry was happiest among his many friends.
