Mom was born and married in Meleb, MB. She and Walter spent a number of years farming in both Malonton, and Fraserwood, MB. When their cattle suffered a devastating disease, they moved to Winnipeg in 1962, where she was a stay at home mom and helped out of town family members by supplying room and board. Her joy of cooking was most enjoyed by her borders and evident at the number of holiday dinners she had with all the ethnic delights. Mom and Dad enjoyed many vacations to various hot spots. Mom also took a trip to Europe with family and friends, which was most memorable. Mom resided at Carriage House North for many years, where she enjoyed playing cards with her many friends and will be missed by them especially Anne. She enjoyed outings to play bingo at the casino with her good friend Dorothy. As per Mom's wishes, cremation has taken place. A Memorial Service will be held at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main St. on Tuesday, February 9 at 1:00 p.m. She will be interred at Precious Blood Cemetery in Fraserwood, MB this spring.

Words can't explain how much I will miss Jean. She was quite the character and we had many laughs together, especially playing evening cards. I will miss her pat on my hand and her wink as she passed me some of the worst cards possible....and how we would laugh. She was one of a kind. R.I.P. Jean. - Posted by: Terri Dershko (Friend and neighbor) on: Feb 06, 2016

I met Jean in 2012. It didn't take long for us to become friends. I always said something stupid to make her laugh. I also enjoyed being her partner when playing whist on Thursdays. She was a nice lady and will be missed. Hope she saves a seat for me in heaven so we can play cards again. - Posted by: DEBBIE BRIESE (neighbour/friend at Carriage House) on: Feb 04, 2016
