JESSIE KATHELEEN NAPPER October 8, 1915 - December 1, 2008 It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our Auntie Jessie Katheleen Napper ( AJ ) on December 1, 2008. AJ resided in the Weston area until 2005 when she suffered a stroke. She gained her strength and health back and moved to Stony Mountain to live with her nephew Gary and family for years before going into Rosewood Lodge. AJ enjoyed her life to its' fullest and always loved hanging out with the younger crowd. She was a generous, thoughtful and loving lady who always gave so much and wanted nothing in return. She was a lifetime member of the Royal Canadian Legion #2 and enjoyed spending time at the Army Navy Branch #1 where she met, and kept, many close and true friends. AJ is survived by her loving niece and goddaughter Vickie (Wayne) and family; loving and caring nephew Gary (Shirley) and family; numerous nephews, nieces, their spouses and siblings. She was predeceased by her father William; mother Beatrice; sisters, Minnie, Fannie, Doris; and brothers, Bill, Harry, Ted, husband Ernest and close companion Bill McDowell. To all of AJ's friends, staff at Rosewood Lodge and Dr. Graham, a special thank you for all you have done for her, it is very much appreciated. A special thank you also to Shirley for all the loving and devoted care you have given her over the years. The family cannot name everyone who has helped AJ on her final journey, in the event we miss someone, THANK YOU! As per Jessie's wishes, there will be no service and cremation has taken place. Flowers gratefully declined, but if you wish, donations can be made to the Humane Society, in her memory.
