She lived in Calgary until 1942 when she and Andrew moved to Vancouver, BC. She raised her children in Vancouver and lived on the Coast until she returned to Calgary in 2000. Jean was a wonderful loving mother and grandmother. She had time and love to give to any child and often helped out those who needed extra care.
