Passed away peacefully at home with his family by his side on Friday,
February 16, 2018. Jerry W. Matthews, age 91 years, was the beloved

and her husband Kirby White of Edmonton, AB, Julia and her husband Rick
Turchet of Regina, SK, Peter and his wife Karla of Cambridge, Gregory and
his wife Sarah of Guelph, John and his wife Elyse of Burlington, and
