GANDON; Jean
Jean passed away peacefully on Tuesday, September 24, 2024 surrounded by loved ones. She was born in London, England in 1935. She married Phil Gandon in 1956, and they emigrated to Canada in 1958. They lived in many places in Canada and the USA during their lifetime and finally retired to Goderich in 1992. Jean started her career as a teacher and then stayed at home with their children during their young years. In 1987 she returned to employment as a Volunteer Coordinator with the Anglican Diocese of Toronto. For 40 years she was an Associate of the Anglican Sisters of St. John the Divine in Toronto and became an Oblate in 2008. Most importantly she wishes to acknowledge that during her lifetime she was a child of God. She was blessed by many friends.
Jean was predeceased by her beloved husband Phil (2019), her son David (1963) and her daughter Catherine (2017). She is survived by her children Peter, Richard and Debbie (Doug), and her Goddaughter Janet (Ron) as well as grandchildren Chelsea, Eva, Darah, Abigail, Hannah and Madi, and great-grandchildren Ella, Jaxon, Lukas and Elijah, all of whom she loved dearly.
In recent years she was very grateful for the help of the PSWs from One Care, particularly Kathryn, Sue, Ruth and Flor.
The family would like to thank the doctors and nurses at Alexandra Marine & General Hospital for the great care they provided to Jean in her final month.
A Celebration of Life will be held for Jean on Saturday, October 26, 2024 at 1:00 pm at St. George’s Anglican Church, 87 North Street, Goderich, Ontario.
In lieu of flowers, a memorial donation to the Anglican Sisters of St. John the Divine at St. John’s Convent in Toronto or to the Huron Hospice Bender House would be welcomed.
