With deep sadness, we announce the passing of Jerry; wife, mother & grandmother, surrounded by her family. Predeceased by her parents, Eric & Evelyn (Hooper) Jamieson. She will be forever remembered by her husband of 60 years, Dave, son Keith (Ruth) Ball, daughter Kelly (Lance) Hartley, Grandchildren, Eric (Sasha), Steven & Darren Ball, Shae & Amber Hartley, & Derek (Siobhan) Epp.
Born in Lacombe, AB, in March 1942, Jerry attended school in Alix, AB until grade 9, then worked for her dad at his real estate/insurance business. She met Dave (also known as Chip) of Mirror, AB around 1959 and by 1964 they formalized their union. She loved excitement & fast cars; especially the classics & roar of muscle cars. Her biggest passion in life was her yard; spending endless hours designing, sculpting & manicuring a rock-style flower garden & lush green lawn. Her efforts were nominated for “Edmonton’s Yards in Bloom” from 2010 to 2012. She took great pride in anything domestic; except cooking—she’d rather her home not have a kitchen. Her radio was always on playing classic rock/disco. She did enjoy coffee-time with friends & neighbours and would help support anyone in need; especially her family. She had a skill with knitting or crocheting amazing sweaters & covers. Once her grandkids arrived, she was given renewed purpose loving the chance to visit or care for them anytime, creating knitted outfits or blankets. Always missing them when they left.
“You will be forever remembered as a big part of our lives and deeply missed by us all”.
As per Jerry’s wishes, there will be no memorial service held.
Special thanks to the University of Alberta Hospital (5E3/5E4) & Norwood Hospice Care Team
