Joanne Mary Irene Jackson - It is with heavy hearts that on November 10, 2017 family and friends said goodbye to Joanne Mary Irene Jackson.

Joanne was born July 23, 1953 in Port Alberni. She was a lifelong resident and alongside her husband Bob Jackson they successfully operated the longstanding business The Smoke Stack for 37 years.

Joanne is survived by her husband Bob Jackson, son Rob Jackson-wife Val-grandchildren Hazen and Robina great grandson Ryden, her parents Claire and Tony Cyr, her niece Leanne-husband Kyle and great nephew Taylor.

Joanne was sadly predeceased by her son Brent, her sister Sharon Ruttan, her nephew Cory Gagne and her father Joseph Gagne.

Joanne is remembered for love of family, generosity, kindness and sense of humor. Her love of dogs was apparent over the years with too many to list. Anyone that visited the home knew that the dogs ruled.

As per Joanne's wishes there is no service but a celebration of life held in the spring of 2018.

She requested no flowers but donations to the Ty Watson House of Port Alberni.
