To the McCrea family - I remember Jean with great fondness. Her quiet presence will be missed. She had many health problems, and is now at rest. For that, you will be thankful. She , and the whole family , belonged to Westminster United Church in Thamesford for many years. On behalf of all her friends in our congregation I want to send our sympathy. Our prayers are with all your family at this time.

Our deepest condolences and sympathies are extended to the entire McCrea family. “Angels are always near to those who are grieving to whisper to them that their loved ones are safe in the hands of God.” May Jean eternally rest in God's loving embrace...

To Jean's family please accept my condolences at the death of your Mom and Grandmother. I trust you will have comfort in the many happy memories of Jean. although our contact over the past many years has only been by mail I reflect back to the happy times we shared as young people. I especially remember crashing their wedding reception as I accompanied my parents to their wedding service. I guess they felt sorry for me as they invited me to join them in their reception. lucky me and what a beautiful memory of both Jean and Dave on that special day. They are now together again.

My thoughts and sympathy are with you in your loss of a kind and loving mother and grandmother. I attended VON exercise classes and ITOPA plays in Ingersoll with Jean. She will be fondly remembered by Thamesford friends.
