Jack Poole Dead at Age 76
Jack Wilson Poole, the chairman of the Vancouver Organizing Committee and a long-time developer, died, of pancreatic cancer, in the early hours of Friday, October 23, 2009, in Vancouver. He was 76.
"British Columbia and Canada have lost a great friend," said Premier Gordon Campbell of Poole's passing. "In the life of British Columbia and Canada, few citizens reflect the generosity of spirit, the commitment to the public good and the undying dedication to public well-being that was exemplified by Jack Poole. His was an example of leadership, strength and integrity that is unmatched in my recollection."
