Jean was an important person in my life. She always had encouraging words, a forgiving heart, and a welcoming spirit. I will always have fond memories of the many evenings we sat in the living room, drinking tea after dinner, and talking about the day’s activities. This was while she knit mittens and hats for the hospital auxiliary, was hemming a person’s pants, or pinning curtains for customers. Jean always gave to those around her, regardless of the circumstances. I will always remember her as a quiet angel.

So dreadfully sad that we cannot be with you. Aunt Jean&&single&&s passing came as quite a shock to all of us. I&&single&&ve been in touch with Beth (Muir) Tobin and she was also so saddened, especially by the suddenness.
As you begin your farewells, I will be wheeled into surgery, in Mississauga. Even so, you will be in our thoughts.
Will be in touch by email soon.
Hugs to all of you.
