DAVID JEANNERET Obituary

(March 31, 1944 - October 13, 2025) We are such stuff / As dreams are made on, and our little life / Is rounded with a sleep -- The Tempest, Act IV. i. It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of David Jeanneret, who died peacefully at home, in Toronto, on Monday, October 13, 2025. David, predeceased by his mother, Bea (Mellan); father, Marsh; and brother, Keith, was a devoted husband to Leslie (McCutcheon); loving dad (and second dad) to Marc, Brent (Karen), and Stephanie (Manet); and adoring Grampio of Spencer, Nolan, Seth, Nate, Maxine and Simone. Friends will remember David's love of learning, fine tenor voice, patronage of the arts, adeptness at public speaking, care and consideration, and deep loyalty. After retiring from a career in education with the YRDSB, David was a dedicated volunteer with King City United Church, Crime Stoppers of York Region, and the York Regional Police Chief's Community Council. A Memorial Service will be held at King City United Church, 50 Elizabeth Grove, King City, ON L7B 1H6, on Saturday, November 15, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a contribution to a Charity of Your Choice in remembrance.

I have fond memories of David from our young days on The Quest from The Commonwealth Youth Movement. A group of us from other countries travelled together with the hope that we would create understanding among people. David was always a fun and gentlemanly participant who always took a great interest in the places we visited.
I will pray for him and his beautiful family. May David rest in peace.

Denise and I were saddened to hear about David's passing. David was one of York Regional Police's most dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers. He left an indelible mark on our organization and our community through his volunteerism, leadership and vision. We will pray for the repose of his soul and we will keep his family and many friends and former colleagues in our thoughts and prayers in the difficult days ahead. Chief (Ret) Armand LaBarge
