JENNIFER MARY MCEWAN (nee TAYLOR) On January 6, 2018, at the age of 56, with her family by her side, Jenny lost her long battle with lymphoma after several recent hospital stays. Predeceased by her mother Jean Taylor, she survived by her husband of 33 years, Malcom, son Ben (Kaylee), daughter Lindsey (Donovan), and grandsons Chase and Fisher. Family was very important to Jenny and she went on with how proud she was of Ben, Lindsey and her grandchildren, and how they brought so much joy into her life. She had recently retired from a long career at Great West Life where she had many long term friendships Jenny enjoyed snowmobiling and spending time at the lake and winter vacations south with her family and friends. She especially enjoyed a girl's trip she took to Europe. She was sure to have a glass of wine in hand at many gatherings on the bay with the Santa and Babcock families, or with her sister-in-law Liz who she was very close with. A celebration of her life will be held at Canad Inns Windsor Park (1034 Elizabeth Rd.) on January 17 at 3:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to CancerCare Manitoba.

Jen was a great big sister...growing up she shared a room with me...walked me to school daily..babysat me...and guided me thru teen years! She was my matron of honour when married as well. I looked up to her for her kindness and love she had for family and friends! The day she moved West with Malcom was one of the saddest days for me that was over 30 years ago. God put our Angel to rest to watch over her loved ones and be at peace. My heart is with Malcom Ben and Lyndzy as i can't be ..ill miss my big sister but always remeber she was there for me when i needed her and will see her on the other side when its my time.

This is such a sad time for everyone who knew and loved Jenny. She was my dear friend for many many years. We met soon after she moved to Wpg from Ontario and first started working at GWL. She was the matron of honor at my wedding. She was a kind and dear friend to all. I will miss her very much. - Posted by: Melinda (Friend and co worker) on: Jan 15, 2018

My heart goes out to her family. - Posted by: Sherry Shindruk (Friend) on: Jan 15, 2018

Jenny had such an infectious smile and laugh! She was a delight to work with and a delight to know as a person. No matter what the circumstances were after spending time with Jenny, she had a way of leaving you feeling so much better. My thoughts are with all her remaining family. - Posted by: Ann Skakum (Friend and co-worker) on: Jan 13, 2018
