JEFF ALLAN CUSHWAY
April 15th, 1974 – November 8th, 2026
It is with great sadness that Jeff’s family announces his peaceful passing on Sunday, November 8th, 2026, surrounded by his wife and children. He had a short but courageous battle with cancer and lived each day to its fullest. During the last year of his life, he had many trips and adventures with his wife, children, and family and friends to make precious memories.
Jeff Allan Cushway was born in Calgary, AB and moved to Moose Jaw, SK at the age of 5. He attended school at Palliser Heights and Peacock. Jeff had many happy memories of camping with his parents and brothers when he was younger, which he then continued with his own family. After a brief time living in Kelowna, BC, he and his wife moved back to Moose Jaw to be close to their extended family when they started having their own children. Jeff loved to create, build and fix things in his garage, and worked at Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) for the past 16 years. He loved spending time with his family, enjoyed going to Moose Jaw Warrior hockey games, baseball games, fishing, camping, and spending time at Buffalo Pound Lake.
He was predeceased by his grandparents, Marie and Alvin Cushway and Theresa and Roland Spencer; as well as his loyal canine companion, Hershey. Jeff will be sadly missed by his wife, Heather; children, Braydon (Kaitlynn) and Riley (Emiley); parents, Jackie and Al; brothers: Jason (Chantelle) and their son Dalton, and Joe (Marla) and their children Logan and Keira; in-laws, Gord and Sandra Miller; Heather’s sister, Jackie (Philip) and their children Jenna (Dylan) and Kennedy (Zach); his ‘brother from another mother’ Greg (Debbie) Thompson; as well as an abundance of friends and family.
A Celebration of Jeff’s Life will be held on Friday, November 13th, 2026 at the Church of Our Lady Hall, 566 Vaughan St in Moose Jaw, with cocktails at 6:30 p.m. and the program starting at 7:00 p.m. As an expression of sympathy, donation in Jeff’s name may be made to The Moose Jaw Humane Society, Box 1658 Station Main, Moose Jaw, SK S6H 7K7. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane. Michelle Ellis, Funeral Director 306-693-4550
My deepest condolences to Jeff’s family at this difficult time. I didn’t know Jeff, but from reading his obituary he had a full and loving life altho it was far too short. I’m so grateful he was healthy enough to be at Braydon and Kaitlynn’s (my dear great niece) wedding Sept 5th.
Rest in peace Jeff and watch over your loved ones until you meet again.
My condolences on the passing of Jeff Cushway. I lived on South Hill Moose Jaw and knew family members.
Ah geez, Heather, Brandon and Riley I am so sorry to hear about Jeff. My condolences and thoughts are with you all. It has been so many years since he hung out in my house with my older girls. Jackie and Al, Gord and Sandra .. no parent wants a child to go first. Jeff’s wit, easy smile, and loyal warm heart are something that will never be forgotten.
Heather and family I am so saddened by this news. Sending you love.
