It is with great sadness and broken hearts that we share the sudden passing of Jerry Van Dyk on Monday, October 30, 2023, our beloved son, brother and uncle. He is survived by his loving mother, Adriana Van Dyk, and sisters, Mary Rose, Elfriede (Don) Hoose, and Adriana (Jim) Mackay. Jerry also leaves behind many nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews, whom he loved so dearly, as well as many cousins and extended family in Holland and Australia. Jerry was predeceased by his father, Gerard (Red) Van Dyk; his sister, Jan Owen, and bother-in-law, Alan Rose. Jerry was born on March 20, 1961, in Medicine Hat and raised in Redcliff; he attended elementary school in Redcliff and graduated from Medicine Hat High School. After graduation, Jerry began working for IXL Industries until they closed their doors, and then joined Plato’s Roofing where he remained employed until recently. Jerry’s family was everything to him. He was patient, kind and loving, and his unwavering care and support for his mother in particular will be irreplaceable. His nieces and nephews meant the world to him, and in turn he was always the favourite fun uncle. Jerry was best known for his humor, always in for a good joke or cartoon. He enjoyed music and games, and was the tech savvy one his siblings turned to for help. Jerry will be so greatly missed by all who knew him. A private family time of remembrance will be held with Life Celebrant David Townsend officiating and interment to follow in the Redcliff Cemetery. If you so desire, donations in memory of Jerry may be made to the charity of your choice. To leave a message of condolence you may visit www.pattisonfuneralhome.com.
