JEAN MULLIGAN (nee STARYK) November 11, 1915 - December 20, 2011 It is with deep sadness we announce the passing away of Jean at Seven Oaks Hospital on Tuesday, December 20, 2011. She is survived by a daughter Helen Sava (Chuck) in Buddina, Australia and a son Floyd (Anne) of Calgary, Alberta. Also surviving are her grandchildren Colleen and Trevor of Australia and great-granddaughters Emma and Georgia; her Canadian grandchildren Meghan of Vancouver, Robert (Karren) and Sean Mulligan of Calgary; one sister Ina Harper of Brisbane, Australia, and many nieces and nephews. Jean was predeceased by her husband Fred in 1988, sister Mary and brother Michael. Jean lived for many years in Rosser, Manitoba where she helped her husband with his gravel company and oil distribution business, raised their children and participated in community activities including the United Church, Sunday School and Women's Institute. Her most notable achievement was to start a 4-H sewing club for the young girls in the community and was recognized by 4-H in recent years for her service. In her later years she moved to Stonewall where she made many new friends, as well as finding new friends on her many trips to Australia. The family would like to thank those people at the Seven Oaks for their care and concerns in her attempts to recover from her leg injury. Mother will be missed by all who knew her. Funeral service and celebration of her life by friends and family on Tuesday, December 27, 2011 at 11:00 a.m., at MacKenzie Funeral Chapel, 433 Main Street, Stonewall, Manitoba.

  • Jean will always be fondly remembered for her leadership and caring nature as my 4-H leader and was often mentioned by my mother as a friendly helpful neighbour. My mom even tried to write a poem in which she mentions Jean and Fred walking by the farm, which to her was one of the first signs of spring in Rosser.
