24 April 1946 – 30 November 2022
On Wednesday, November 30th, Jan passed away peacefully in her home with Bill, her beloved husband of 57 years, by her side.
Loving mother of Grant (Emily) and Lori (Bob) McRae. Proud grandmother of Olivia and Ava Ball, and Alec and Ian McRae. Gran Jan to Susanna Cuda, Juliette and Selwyn Dewdney.
Many will remember her as a friendly and helpful librarian from her time at the Peterborough Public Library and De La Fosse Branch, where she worked for over 25 years. An avid reader, she was always ready with the perfect recommendation.
Jan loved to experiment with recipes and share her tasty creations with family and friends. Skilled at knitting and crafts, Jan always had a new project on the go, whether it was a blanket, socks, or a one-of-a-kind birthday card.
A light in every room, Jan’s generous spirit, twinkling eyes, warm laughter, and loving heart will be remembered and cherished by the many friends and family members that love her dearly. Her hugs, which her grandchildren remember as “the best hugs in the world”, will be deeply missed.
Donations in Jan’s memory to the Heart & Stroke Foundation would be appreciated.
A private family service will be held in the spring.
Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at www.comstockkaye.com for the family.
