Jack was predeceased by his parents Harold and Helen Gavin, a son Stephen and by a brother Peter. Also survived by many niece and nephews.

Jack had always been involved with sports, so it was no surprise when he became a coach to the Royal York Minor Hockey Association, and an M.T.H.L. Referee for many years. He was involved with the All Saints Church in Etobicoke as a Minister of the Eucharist a Reader and member of the Knights of Columbus.
