JOAQUIM DOS SANTOS BARRETO
(JACK)
Peacefully Jack passed away at Concordia Hospital, July 2, 2014, at the age of 86. Jack was born in Estoi, Algarve, Portugal. He moved to Canada in 1962 and his family followed in 1963 making Winnipeg their home.
Left to cherish his memory, he will be greatly missed by his loving wife Maria of 65 years. Also left to cherish his memory are his 2 sons Victor ( Ludovina ), Jack ( Audrey ) 4 grandchildren, Antonio, David( Colleen ) Karina (Ian ) and Kris (Wendy), 3 great grandchildren Tuesday, Nicolao, and Esther. Jack will also be missed by his many friends and acquaintances.
Joaquim ( Jack ) leaves behind a legacy that will last for generations having worked on many of Canada's hydro generating projects including the Diefenbaker Dam in Saskatchewan and the Kettle Rapids Dam in Manitoba. In his later years after a successful business venture he retired to enjoy his passion for winemaking, his backyard orchard and coffee with his many friends, and his love for family and family barbecues whenever possible. He gave selflessly to friends and family, always willing to give a helping hand.
