It is with heavy hearts that the family of Jean Hobden (née Teddy) announces her passing on September 18th, 2025 at the age of 81. She will be deeply missed by her husband Tracy, her daughters Kim and Laurie (Jim), grandchildren Justin (Melanie), Krissy (Chris), and Jake, and great-grandchildren Joey, Ellie, and Clark.
Jean was the loving wife of Tracy for nearly 60 years. They raised their family in Copper Cliff and enjoyed hosting friends and relatives for several special occasions in their home.
A supportive mother, Jean was very involved in Kim and Laurie’s activities and hobbies during their childhood. Jean spent countless hours volunteering with the school and various youth groups and was a valued member of her community.
All of Jean’s grandchildren felt the love she brought to their lives. Whether it was cheering them on in sports or simply spoiling them at every opportunity, being a grandmother brought Jean such joy and provided Justin, Krissy, and Jake with memories that they will cherish forever.
Jean loved knitting, crafts, working in her community, but above all else, Jean loved her family the most.
We would like to thank the wonderful staff at Finlandia for taking such good care of Jean and making it her home for her final years. Special thank you to Tina and Rukayat for being there for her from the beginning right up until the end.
As per Jean’s wishes, there will be no service. If you are looking to make a donation in Jean’s name, please consider donating to Finlandia.
