It is with deep sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of Jeannette Armstrong on October 30, 2022, in the Grace Hospital in Winnipeg, after a quick illness, at the age of 83 years.

 

Jeannette was predeceased by her parents, Stewart Clyde Armstrong and Therese Lilian Houle; stepfather Newman Bowes (Slim), sisters, Denise Bedford (Logan), Jeraldine Brush (Harrison), Shirley Williams (Armstrong); brothers, Donald, Arthur, Charles, and James Armstrong; as well as her son David Morrissey. She leaves behind her brother Bill Armstrong of Pennsylvania; daughter Angie; sons, Randy, Rick, and Dennis; grandchildren, Ryan, Patrick-Sean, Gary, Jamie, Robbie, Mandy, Kyle, Ashley, Declan, Taylor, and Mackenzie; great-grandchildren, Brielle, Evelyn, and Thorin. Jeannette was “Aunty” to many nieces, nephews, and their spouses, and showed love to many others.

 

Jeannette was born in Redbridge Ontario and moved with her parents and siblings to Northbay, Ontario at a young age. She married and eventually settled in the town of Azilda to raise her family. Jeannette worked mostly in the service industry until 1989, retiring after she had a stroke. In 2010, Jeannette moved to the big city (Winnipeg) with her son Rick and daughter-in-law Leila where she enjoyed her final years of retirement as age started to catch up with her.

 

Jeannette's family kindly requests that all of her friends and relatives take a few minutes to honour her memory by sharing photos, memories, and stories, using the comment section on this page.
