Obituary Overview
IN LOVING MEMORY
Funk, (Mary) Jeanette
Our beloved mother,
grandmother and aunt left us to dance with the angels on Tuesday, 21 November
2017 in her 88th year. Reunited with
her late husband and favourite dance partner, Robert Funk (Welland), Jeanette
was greeted at the gates of heaven by her loving parents, Anna and Peter Hucic
(Welland), her beautiful, fun-loving sisters and their husbands, Kathleen
(Katie) and Jack Ballantyne (Welland), Slava and Anthony (Tony) Kristich
(Amherst, NY) and her brother and sister-in-law, John and Violet Hucic (St. Louis,
MO).
Jeanette will forever
dance in the hearts of her daughters, Ana Lorraine Stirling (Randy, St. Anns)
and Melanie Funk Laskaris (Pete, Caistor Centre) and her niece, Karon Morehead
(Clayton, Port Colborne).
Memories of her
laughter, wisdom, and lovable expressions will be fondly remembered by the
grandchildren she treasured- Kyle and Ryan Stirling and Tim, Hope and George
Laskaris.
She will be sadly
missed by her nephew, Tom Kristich (Cindi, Croton-on-Hudson, NY), her godson
Jim Funk (Sarah, Welland), niece Linda Laquerre (Clem, Wainfleet),
sister-in-law Margaret Funk and great-niece Allison Morehead (Derek Walker,
Toronto). Her memory will be held dear by the youngest members of her family,
Max and Dylan Kristich (NY) and Eloise and Liliane Walker (Toronto).
Friends and family
will remember Jeanette for her years of service with Dr. H.O. Singer (Welland)
and as an administrator/owner of Robert H. Funk Ltd. and Lindel Investments. We
will always admire her kind, gentle nature, and amazing artistic talents.
Jeanette’s paintings, quilting, and knitting, shared with all of us, are
reminders of her passion for creating beauty.
A world of thanks goes
to Dr. Goswami for being both her compassionate physician and family friend for
many years. Prayers and thoughts from Pastor Jukka Saarinen of St. Matthew’s
Lutheran Church were of great comfort to both Jeanette and her family. Thanks
also go to the Plymouth Cordage Retirement Residence staff who provided a home
away from home for Jeanette. She often spoke with love and affection for them
and the friends she met at the Cordage. Thanks to the staff of the Welland
Hospital who made Jeanette’s final days comfortable, allowing her family to
surround her with the love and support she deserved.
A family celebration
of Jeanette’s life will be held on Friday, November 24, 2017, Pleasantview
Funeral Home, 2000 Merrittville Hwy, Thorold, in the chapel at 2 pm. Donations
will be thankfully accepted for St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church and the Canadian
Diabetes Association. wwwpleasantviewcemetery.ca
