Obituary of Jean A. Stevens
It is with saddened hearts that we, the family, announce the passing of Jean on Wednesday, December 4, 2019, in Hants Community Hospital, Windsor, at the age of 92. Formerly of Blacks Harbour, Pennfield and Quispamsis, NB and Bedford. She was currently residing in Windsor. Born in Chamcook, Charlotte Co., NB, on September 3, 1927, Jean was a daughter of the late Angus and Nellie (McNicole) MacGillivary.
In 1947, Jean married William Stevens and raised three children in Blacks Harbour, NB. Throughout her lifetime Jean worked at Connors Brothers in Blacks Harbour and retired from running the Food Services Department at the Funday Hospital in Blacks Harbour. Jean enjoyed many years of retirement with her family, jam making, baking, reading, cross word puzzles, travelling and cheating at the occasional scrabble game. She loved her time each summer in PEI with her grandchildren and great grandchildren and her L.M. Montgomery stories.
Jean is survived by her twin daughters, Judith Lorraine Craig, Bedford and Jennifer Elaine Stevens-Ross, Halifax; son, William David Stevens, Smithers, BC; brother, Everett (Jackie) MacGillivray, Scarborough, ON; granddaughters, Charmaine (Tyler) McAdoo, Windsor; Natalie (Andrew) Ing, Ottawa, ON and Jessica Ross, Halifax; great grandchildren, MacKenzie and Liam McAdoo and Sofia VanDusen; as well as many extended family members.
Besides her parents, Jean was predeceased by her husband, William Leroy Stevens.
