John (Jack) Osland

John "Jack" Osland passed away peacefully on Wednesday, September 2, 2026, in Edmonton, Alberta, at the age of 76.

Raised in Edmonton, Jack was a natural athlete, ski instructor, and skilled craftsman who dedicated over 45 years to a successful career in the propane industry, eventually serving as General Manager of Mutual Propane Ltd. Beyond his professional achievements, Jack was defined by his drive and determination, love of the outdoors, and deep devotion to family—from coaching youth hockey, cheering his daughters at the pool, and sharing winter ski trips to spending memorable summers with loved ones at Lake Okanagan in British Columbia.

Jack leaves behind a lasting legacy of love in his four children—Ceilidh (Brad), Corey (Robyn), Jacqueline (Ben), and Jonathan (Richelle)—his seven cherished grandchildren (Ryley, Jack, Ayrton, Frieda, Charlize, Winston, and Dylan), and his partner, Dawn.

A private family memorial and celebration of life will be held in the spring.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Jack's memory may be made to the Greater Edmonton Foundation (GEF Seniors Housing) in gratitude for their outstanding care: https://gef.org/.
