April 11, 1944 – March 30, 2014
In loving memory of Jean Montgomery, a resident of Gore Bay, who died peacefully at the Mindemoya Hospital on Sunday morning. She was born at Sault St. Marie. Jean was predeceased by her parents Fred and Helena (Greenman) Semple. She was a great cook and baker. Over the years, Jean had made “millions of cookies”. She enjoyed gardening and knitting. Jean made hundreds of Teddy bears for Doctors Without Borders, who distributed them to many countries around the world. Jean’s greatest pleasure was having her family around her and was fortunate to have Ken and her girls with her when she passed away. Jean is survived by her beloved husband Ken of Gore Bay. Loving and loved mother of Heather (Darlene) of Alliston, Hollie Van der Ende (Allan) of Alliston, Peggy Koopmans (John) of Angus, Leslie of London and Melissa (Rich) of St. Thomas. Proud and loved grandmother of Hannah, Sarah, Zackery, Madyson, Alicia, Adam and Hayley. Dear sister of Lois Nichol of Angus. Also survived by many friends, relatives and neighbours. In keeping with Jean’s request, cremation will take place with interment in Gordon Cemetery. If so desired, donations to Doctors Without Borders would be appreciated.
