Obituary of Jean Sebben
Sebben, Jean (nee Milner) ~ Jean’s wonderful journey ended peacefully in her 89th year, on Monday, March 13, 2017 at Sunnyside Home in Kitchener. She is now reunited with her endless love; Bill (1963). Her large family already misses her - William (Julia), Doug, Jane Gunn (Bob), Robert (Bill Schulz), and Steve (Lori).
Jean was a devoted Grandma to Jennifer (Curtis McFadden), Amanda (Ryan Castle), Will Sebben (Colbey), Ben Gunn (Steph), Catrina (Mike Clark), Adrienne (Dave Elliott), Steph, Ted, Jill, and Leah Sebben, and was adored by her ten great-grandchildren: Addison, Kenzie, Oden, Bryce, Presley, Gavin, Myla, Sutter, Westin, and Quinn.
Jean will be lovingly remembered by Pat and Jean Sebben and her numerous nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by parents, William and Pearl Milner, Mabel and Bill Sebben, and in-laws George and Betty Sebben, and Marg and Earl Stoskopf.
Jean independently raised her five children on the 13th line of Wellesley, later moving to Linwood where she became Linwood Chiefs #1 fan. She could often be seen at various ballparks, arenas and bonspiels, socializing and enjoying the company of family and friends. Jean travelled countless miles with the ‘Golden Girls’ and will be recalled for her entertainment and true love of life. Her kind heart and fiery spirit will be remembered and missed by all.
