JEAN LUCIENNE MCKINNEY (née Robillard)
We bid farewell to a kind, compassionate Mother, NaNa, Great NaNa and Sister, Jean. Jean was born May 12th, 1932 at the Civic Hospital in Ottawa, ON. She was predeceased by the love of her life, Allan McKinney. They were married for over 54 years. She was also predeceased by her parents, Edgar and Mary Robillard; brothers, Edgar Jr and Frederick; and sister-in-law, Hazel. With pride they welcomed into their lives: son, Dean, daughter, Tracy (Robert) Chapman; grandsons, Gareth (Jodie) and Kyle Chapman; great-grandson, Charles John Allan; and step-great-grandson, Benjamin. Jean is also remembered by her brothers and sister: Robert (Bob), Norman (Gladys), and Diane (Paul); sister-in-law, Claire; as well as numerous extended family. She continued to be an inspiration and role model to her family right up until her passing at Providence Place on Wednesday, December 21st, 2016. Family was everything to Mum. Jean worked at Reward Shoes and the CN Telegraph office in Ottawa. She followed Al to Moose Jaw in 1967, where she worked at Sears for over 27 years. She took great pleasure in serving many of her customers. Jean was an avid shopper, enjoyed knitting, word search puzzles and attending Moose Jaw Warriors games. Not to mention a regular visitor at one of the Tim Horton’s in Moose Jaw. Jean simply enjoyed people! A special thanks to the staff at Providence Place Guardian Grove and Dr. Dautremont. A Celebration of Jean’s life will be held on Thursday, December 29th, 2016 at 2:00 pm in Moose Jaw Funeral Home with Dave Foley officiating. As an expression of sympathy, donations in Jean’s name may be made to the Alzheimer's Association of Saskatchewan, 301 - 2550 12th Ave, Regina, SK S4P-3X1. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane. James Murdock, Funeral Director 306-693-4550 www.moosejawfuneralhome.com
