With heavy hearts, we announce the sudden passing of our gentle, kind, loving husband, dad, papa and brother on Monday, November 22, 2021 at the age of 63.
"My one and only" beloved husband of Iva for 43 years. Loving dad of Josh (Bethany), Andrea, Stephen, Jennifer (Justin) and Tamarah. Proud and patient papa of Samuel, Kennedy, Callie, Emma, Grayson, Harper, and soon to come baby Eleanor. Predeceased by his parents Case and Marina and brother Mark. Dear brother of Louise (George). Brother-in-law of many, many Bakers: Laura (John), Annie (Neil), late Julia (Ken), Ivan (Monique), Chris (Perry), Erwin and Kenny (Kathy). Gave the best hugs to all of his many nieces and nephews. Special "Bish" of Norman Rathbone. Bishop Neil Jansen will be missed by many friends and the brothers and sisters of the New Apostolic Church here in Canada and other congregations around the world.
He was dedicated to his work as a Bishop and touched many hearts. He led with kindness and wisdom and was a loving example of faith to all.
In his words: "Have I told you I love you today?"
