Dear Friends, chères Amies et chers Amis,

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our favourite chef, beloved husband of Martine and adored dad of Olivier & Alexandra.

Trained in France, Jacques brought to Canada his passion of French cuisine and shared it with his faithful patrons at Jacques Bistro du Parc for 43 years. His generous and caring personality, and great food, brought people together. Jacques created a special gem in Yorkville, a mini escape to France. Jacques was proud and happy that his restaurant had become a gathering place for many generations where wonderful memories were shared and milestones celebrated.

Thank you to all the doctors and nurses who cared for Jacques for ten months at Sunnybrook Hospital. You are amazing!

UN GRAND MERCI ET AU REVOIR!

A service will be held on Saturday August 24th 2024 at 1 pm. at

Blessed Sacrament Church (2982 Yonge Street, Toronto. South of Lawrence).

Please feel welcome to wear blue, Jacques’ favourite colour.
