Wonderful grandma to Chris Cumming (Lauren Ackerman), Julie Cumming (Jon Grabell), Richard Cowan, Amber Cowan (Chris Armstong), Kevin Banfield (Kayla) and Bailey Banfield. Great-grandmother to Jaxton, Jazlyn and Owen. Jean will be fondly remembered by her sister Barb (late Paul Phillips) but is predeceased by her sisters, Elsie (late Don Neelin), Pat (late Rudy Korody).
