The family of Elaine Lenore Jackson (Leni) are greatly saddened to announce the sudden passing of our wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, on Sunday, January 25, 2004 at the University Hospital in Saskatoon. Leni was predeceased by her parents Marjorie and Frederick McClelland. Survived by her husband Bud of 47 years. Children Marj (Barry) Patten, Cranberry Portage, MB; Lynn (Bill) Coupland, Benito, MB; Jordan Mondor, Toronto, ON; Patricia Jackson, Winnipeg, MB. Leni was very proud of her grandchildren Lesley, Barb (John), Leona, Harvey, Ian (Sherrise), Ruth, Stephanie, Lisa, Samara, Jennifer (Alan), Nathan, Melissa, Shannique. Great-grandchildren Thalecia, Cheylene, Alena and Aliyah. Born in Winnipeg, July 14, 1936, Leni's family, grandchildren and great-grandchildren as well as numerous foster children were the love of her life. Next came her love for gardening, doing crafts, listening to music and the outdoors. At Leni's request cremation has taken place and a private family service will take place at a later date. In lieu of flowers, those wishing to remember Leni can make donations to the Canadian Diabetic Association, Canadian Arthritis Society, or a charity of your choice. Many thanks to the doctors and nurses of the Emergency Room and ambulance attendants of the Flin Flon General Hospital for your professionalism and caring during this very trying time. Thanks to Creighton Homecare who have been a great support to Leni for the past several years. Thanks to all for your calls, cards and support. Bud Jackson and Family
