Predeceased by her loving husband Barry Culbert. Predeceased by her mother Margaret and husband Morris McMillan as well as brother-in-law Barry Butson. Jean will be greatly missed by her children; Darin Culbert, Julie (Larry) Baer and Jennifer Chesney. She was an adoring and proud Nana to nine grandchildren; Evan, Jade, Faith, Chase, Connor, Ashlyn, Logan, Heather and Heidi and a loving great grandma to Maysa. She will be sadly missed by her sisters Donna Butson, Karen (Wayne) Draper and her brothers Robert (Donna) and Joseph (Cheryl) Beechey. Jean was a loving aunt to many nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews and sister-in-law to Mark Culbert. Jean loved her family and cherished any time spent with them. Her grandchildren will treasure the memories spent working together with their Nana on her imaginative crafts. She called Goderich her home for the majority of her life and will be fondly remembered by a long list of dear friends and neighbours. Her passion was for painting and she was an avid member of the Goderich Art Club. Jean was proud to have been the feature artist at this past summer’s art show. She spent many years travelling with the Goderich Travel Club and enjoyed her many adventures. Jean spent countless hours knitting and crocheting beautiful pieces and gifts. She was a Girl Guide leader for several years and volunteered endless hours at the previous Queen Elizabeth School for special needs students. Her thoughtful work and devotion to her family is the reflection of her character that will be dearly missed and remembered. A celebration of life will take place on Sunday, November 4th, 2018 at the McKay Centre for Seniors (10 Nelson Street East, Goderich) from 2 – 4 PM.

My deepest sympathy to Jean’s family and what a big loss to the Goderich Community. I got to know Jean through our love of Guiding and her Mom too- definitely a fantastic lady. So sorry for your loss – Pat Dicks
Sorry to hear about the passing of your mom. thinking of you!
Jean and I met in 1985 when we were both new members of the Art Club. Over the years we had many good times and would reminisce and laugh at all those experiences. Five of us used to gather for each others birthday and those were hilarious times with the silly gifts and the cake and the jokes. Those good times that wont be forgotten . Jean worked hard at her painting and was always willing to try new ways. All the good things that have been said about her don’t even begin to capture what a beautiful soul she was.
My sincere sympathy to her children whom she loved to pieces.
Sincere sympathy to the family on the loss of a dear mother , grandmother and friend. Treasure the memories.
Dear Julie and family,
Our sincere condolence to you on the loss of your mother.
Cherish the memories and hold them close to your heart.
Allan & Rosemary Beange
Darin, Julie , Jennifer and families … we were so saddened to hear of your mom’s passing; she was always a quiet, kind and gentle presence at family gatherings. When the kids were little, Natalie would come home with pictures that she and Jade had painted at Nana’s home, or a craft they had made there; I was touched by how she took the time to bless others with her creative gifts. That creative legacy and kind and gentle spirit lives on in her children and grandchildren. We are thinking of you as you will be missing both her and your dad/grandpa. With love and prayers, Mike and Deb and family.
