Date of Passing: Dec 26, 2008
Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryJEAN EDITH ROBINSON Jean Edith Robinson, 85, passed away quietly in her sleep during the early morning hours on December 26, 2008. Born in Northern Ireland, Jean was raised by her adoptive father, William Hugh Carson Toone. From his example, Jean grew into a very kind and caring person. Jean married George William Robinson of Kenora in November 1942 and was blessed with 52 years of love and friendship. She is survived by her son William George Robinson of Winnipeg and her daughter Heather Elizabeth Robinson of Guelph, ON. In her own quiet, unassuming manner, Jean touched the lives of many by making her small part of the world a more friendly, more caring and less forbidding place. An avid gardener, she created pockets of beauty that gave peace and nourished the soul. A graveside service will be held at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday, December 30 at Glen Lawn Memorial Gardens, 455 Lagimodière Blvd (across the Royal Canadian Mint). Donation may be made in Jean's memory to the Salvation Army. DESJARDINS 233-4949
