JOHN ADRIEN
EUGENE JEANNOTTE
Peacefully, after a courageous battle
with Alzheimer’s; it is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our
beloved husband, father and grandfather on Tuesday, December 9, 2014, at the
age of 87 years.
Left to forever cherish John’s memory
are his loving wife of 61 years, Shirley; their four children, Cheryl (Trent),
Ken (Heidi), Michael (Irene), Leanne (John); 13 grandchildren; three great-grandchildren;
siblings, Pete (Rita), Lorraine (Henry), Terry, Aline (Mike), Gilbert (Julie),
Patsy (Bill), Josette, Mariette, and Vivianne; brothers-in-law Ken (Margaret)
and Wayne; as well as many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his
parents Patrice and Marie; brother Giles (age 18 months); brothers-in-law, Len,
Jack, and Gene.
John worked for Arlington Builders for
19 years before trying his hand in the hardware business in Treherne, Manitoba,
where he became a charter member of the Kinsman Club, serving in the capacity
of Vice President, and then President. John returned to Winnipeg to work for
the Province of Manitoba in Government Services as project manager for 21
years. He loved nothing more than a big family get together where everyone was
having a great time. There were many nights where brothers and sisters would
get together for a good ol’ fashioned family ho down.
Funeral Mass will be celebrated on
Monday, December 15, 2014 at 11:00 a.m. in St. John XXIII Roman Catholic
Church, 3390 Portage Avenue, with Rev. Fr. Gerald Langevin, presiding.
Entombment will follow in the Queen of Heaven Mausoleum in Assumption Roman
Catholic Cemetery, 3990 Portage Avenue.
We would like to extend a thank you to
all the staff on the fifth floor at the Grace Hospital, with a special thank
you to Debbie for all your care and compassion.
In Lieu of flowers, a donation may be
made in his name to the Alzheimer’s Society, 10 – 120
