Jeanette passed away peacefully on April 1, surrounded by family after a courageous battle with cancer. Her memory will be forever etched in the hearts of her devoted husband of 51 years, Geoffrey, her brother Edward (Barbara), sister-in-law Pauline, nephew Ted (Margaret), and niece Sue (Anthony). Pre-deceased by her brother-in-law John.
Her love for life knew no bounds and she found joy in exploring new places through travel, immersing herself in the beauty of the arts, and embarking on a lifelong quest for knowledge. Her passion for literature and reading was not only evident in her personal pursuits but also in her dedicated service as a Librarian at the TDSB, where she nurtured a love for learning in countless students over the years.
Jeanette cultivated deep and meaningful relationships, including a lifelong friendship with her dear friend Moira. Her wit, warmth, kindness, and grace touched the lives of her former students, colleagues, and a wide circle of friends and neighbours, leaving an indelible mark on everyone she met.
The family wishes to express their heartfelt gratitude to the compassionate doctors and nurses at Sunnybrook Hospital for their unwavering care and support during Jeanette's illness.
May her spirit continue to shine brightly in the hearts of all who knew her.
