It is with great sadness that we, the family, announce the passing of John ‘Jack’ Polegato, on July 4, 2016 at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital, Sydney, surrounded by his loving family, after a courageous battle with cancer.
Born in Sydney, he was the son of the late Redensio Polegato, and Theresa (MacCormick) Polegato.
Jack loved his family dearly, especially his dog Goomer. He always took great pride in his children’s accomplishments. He was most content outdoors, puttin’ around on his lawn tractor, as well as camping and campfires. Jack always looked forward to the fishing derbies and good times with his close childhood friends, Roddie Hanson and Gerard Leonard. He always had a wonderful sense of humour and a joke or two to share. Jack's career was spent working for the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure.
Jack is survived by his mother, Theresa Polegato; wife, Nancy (Moore); son, Bradley (Danielle Morrison) and daughter, Angela Polegato. He is also survived by his sister, Mary (Michael) MacInnis, Prime Brook, as well as many nieces, nephews, good friends and co-workers.
