Ethel Jackson

Our beloved mother died peacefully on June 21, 2018 at the Village of Humber Heights in her 95th year. Loving wife of the late Frederick Jackson and daughter of the late Arthur and Elizabeth Pardon of Midland, Ontario. Beloved mother of the late David (late Mary Fleming), Joanne Fincham (Ron), Marilyn Jackson (Tom Clement), and Karen Wiggins (Tom). Ethel was blessed with 7 grand children, 16 great grand children, and 2 great-great grand children. Mom’s door was always open for a cup of tea (milk first) and cookies served with a smile and a bit of friendly advice.

(East of the Jane subway) on Tuesday from 2 until 4 and 6 until 8 PM. Funeral service will be held in the Chapel on Wednesday, June 27, 2018 at 11 AM.

We were so fortunate to meet Ethel when we joined St John's. She was always so welcoming to us and our children. After we retired our fellowship at the Thursday morning worship deepened our friendship. Her understanding of parish life and her wise counsel enriched us all. Her transition into a seniors home was a learning experience for us. We have many fond memories. We send our sincere condolences to all her many family and friends. She will missed but not forgotten.

Auntie Ethel was a mainstay of Gothic Avenue where our families grew up together. She, my mother, Betty Johnson and Ann Norris were neighbours and friends for many years. Ethel had a warm heart and a wonderful sense of humour and she always made us feel welcome in her home. After my mother passed away in 1996, Ethel and I became good friends and i came to appreciate her not only as a wonderful surrogate mother but as the delightful human being she was. With much love, Jill
