In the early hours of June 29, 2019, my mom, Margaret “Maggie”Jeeves - just a few hours after visiting with her closest friends, my brother and our families, and whilst holding my hand - opened her eyes, smiled at me briefly, and then peacefully passed away.
She was born in England in 1933 and as a young lady came to Canada where she met and married my dad, John “Johnny” Jeeves. Together they enjoyed life, built a thriving business, and - their most cherished achievement, raised their children.
After John’s passing she began a 13-year battle with cancer. She faced this battle with dignity and grace in typically British “stiff upper lip” style; she always had a smile on her face. Her six grandchildren brought her great joy during her painful battle. Maggie is sadly missed by her family and her many friends.
In lieu of flowers, Maggie requested a donation to the ‘Drive for the Cure’ Foundation, which will donate those funds in Maggie’s name to fight Cancer in BCs lower mainland, where she lived over 50-years.
