JACOBE: Jean (Cole) Obituary
Passed away peacefully surrounded by her family at Jessica’s House on Wednesday, March 27, 2024 of Exeter, at the age of 69. Cherished and devoted wife of Raye Jacobe for over 39 years. Proud mom of Ryan and Lisa Jacobe. Adored Ma of Carson, Jade, and Maci. Dear sister and sister-in-law of Donald and Maureen Cole, and Sharon and Doug Kyle. Loving aunt of Wayne (Lindsay) Cole, the late Lawrence Cole, and Sarah Kyle. Dear daughter-in-law of Mary Jacobe. Predeceased by her parents Alvin and Margaret (Templeman) Cole, and father-in-law Laird Jacobe.
Jean enjoyed her many years in the bank, forming relationships with people in the community. Her beautiful voice was heard in different choirs over the years. Jean was always eager for Spring, so she could get out on the golf course for a round and walk through town and on the trails with her friend Linda. Together, she and Raye enjoyed dancing and playing cards. Above all, she cherished every moment she spent with her family, especially her grandchildren.
Visitation will be held at Haskett Funeral Home, 456 Main Street South, EXETER on Tuesday, April 2nd from 6 – 8 PM, where Jean’s funeral service will be held on Wednesday, April 3rd at 1 PM. Private family interment Exeter Cemetery.
Donations to Jessica’s House or the South Huron Community Choir would be appreciated by the family.
The family wishes to thank the staff at Jessica’s House for their superior care and compassion shown to Jean and her family. Our community is extremely lucky to have Hospice care like Jessica’s House.
