Jean Eleanor (Getz) Ferrigan

It is with sadness that the family of Jean Ferrigan announces her passing at Carleton Lodge in Ottawa.

Jean was predeceased by her husband Paul of 61 years, her brothers Bob and Bill, and her sister Carol.

She will be dearly missed by her children Joe (Tina) of Oshawa, and Deb (Richard) of Ottawa, her grandchildren Kyle (Alicia) of Stratford and Grace of Toronto, and her great grandchildren Kellen and Miller.

A long time resident of Deep River, Jean served for decades as a volunteer for Meals on Wheels and the CWL.  She was a prolific quilter and rug hooker and her works adorn the homes of many family members and friends.  She will be remembered for her wonderful family gatherings and meals, her pies (apple, peach, strawberry-rhubarb), her sense of humour and her strength.

Respecting Jean's request, cremation has taken place.  A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, May 24 at 11:00 am in the Chapel of Valley Funeral Home, Deep River.  In lieu of flowers the family suggests donations to the Dementia Society of Ottawa and Renfrew County.

Funeral arrangements entrusted to the Valley Funeral Home, Deep River.
