It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Jean McEwan in Kamloops, BC at the age of 93 on March 22,
2021.
Jean was predeceased by her husband Jack McEwan and her daughter Laurie McEwan. Jean is survived by her
sisters Betty Vernon and Dorothy Reedman and their families, son Bill (Dolly) McEwan, and grandchildren Dean
(Carmen) Schiavon, Jacqui Tourand, and Jasmine McEwan. A loving mother, grandmother, and friend, Jean found
happiness in having friends and family over for coffee, lunches, and dinners. She loved baking and making sure her
grandchildren were fed. She often made an “extra” pie at holidays, so everyone got to take home leftovers.
She also loved to spoil her dog and made sure to go for her weekly hair appointment, rain or shine. She loved playing
solitaire and crosswords, but also enjoyed playing dice with her grandchildren. Her garden was her pride and joy, as
was the giant maple tree in the front yard.
Jean was loved very much by her family and friends and will be dearly missed.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks to kindly make a donation to the Kamloops BC SPCA.
Condolences may be sent to the family from
