To Earl and all our Canham cousins and the extended MacGregor and Dunbar families: Words can't express the loss that we feel upon hearing about Jean. We regret that we are not in Canada and can't get back for the funeral. I remember when Earl brought Jean to Bedford Street in Cornwall to meet my mom and dad, (Aunt Laura and Uncle George). At this time I thought she was pretty special and has remained so for over 50 years! As Canham cousins we have all been a very close family. We have been witness to the passing of our aunts and uncles over the years leaving only Aunt Annie, the matriarch of the family. On Aunt Dorothy's passing, Jean was there to take her place. She, along with Earl became the welcoming host and hostess at "the Canham family farm" on Rush City Rd. "Come on in, how are you, will you stay for dinner?". Then there was always lots of food, laughs, storytelling and pies cut in huge pieces. Jean was like a sister to us all. We loved her dearly. She was always ready to listen and showed deepest interest in all our lives. Jean was a caring, loving, kind and vibrant individual, deeply involved with family and community happenings. She lived her life as a perfect example of a Christian believer. I guess the only problem with this was that God saw it too. He must have a special task for her to complete in Heaven to have called her Home so abruptly! Mom always had a favorite sympathy card that said," She is not dead, she is just away!". That being said we still feel the physical loss of our Jean. All we have left are the hundreds of fond memories. She will be sorely missed by all her family and the Avonmore community. Love always, John and Jennifer
