It is with much sadness and hope in the Resurrection of our Lord that we announce the falling asleep of Jean Isabelle Keen on Sunday February 4, 2024.
Born on April 23, 1950, Jean was an Orthodox Christian who loved her Lord Jesus Christ and His Church.
Jean also enjoyed watching figure skating, especially Stars on Ice. One of her greatest thrills was when Yuka Sato came out of the tour bus specifically to sign her program.
When Jean was young, she made the front page of the Moosonee newspaper as she made a perfect curtsey for the Governor General, Vincent Massey.
Jean proudly joined the Markham District Veterans Association to honour her father, Ed Garnet who was a radio operator in the RCAF, and her mother, Margaret who was a Nurse Sister in London during the Blitz. This was during WWII. Jean was a Relative Member.
Jean earned her Bachelor of Commerce (B.Comm.) degree at Concordia University, then earned her Certified General Accountants (CGA) designation. Later she received her Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) designation.
Jean was CEO of 21st Century Accounting Inc., building up her cliental by visiting their premises.
Jean was happily married to Brian Keen and looked forward to their date nights every Sunday night. Together they read Scripture and prayed for other people.
May Her Memory be Eternal.
