has been residing at Leisureworld Nursing
Home since December 2008 and formerly for 56
years at her home on Cherry Street in

family. Jean is the mother of Fred Kean and
Beth Papais (Romeo) and grandmother of Jeff
Kean (Amy), Jeannie Nicole Kean, Ryan Kean,
Paul Papais (Alicia) and Julie Jean Papais,
Great grandmother to Kobe, Kaleb and Merissa Kean and
Madeline Isabell, Marley, Layla and Cameron
Papais. Jean is also survived by her sister
Violet Moulton (Harold) of Oshawa and Harold
Waterhouse (Shirley) of Tillsonburg, plus
many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased
by her husband Joseph “Red” Kean in 1992,
her parents Minnie Belle (Taylor) Waterhouse
1983, Lambert Waterhouse 1965, sister Vera
(Waterhouse) Dunbar 1983 and brother Robert
Waterhouse in 2002. Jean was a very active
member of the Ingersoll community for many
years. She was a proud founding member of
the “Good Companions Club”, which formed
during war time to help with separation from
their spouses. The club continued meeting on
a regular basis until the last couple years.
She was the 1st female member to sit on the
Ingersoll Golf & Country Club, Board of
Directors. One of her roles also included
being treasurer for many years for the
Ingersoll Y.M.C.A. Her Love for children was
one of the reasons she co-founded the
Ingersoll Tiny Tots Program through the YMCA
with Margaret Butterworth more than 50 years
ago. Jean was formerly a member of Trinity
United Church, United Church Women and an
Explorer leader for many years. She has for
the past years been a member of Foldens

wonderful locations over the years such as
Portugal, Spain, Ireland, England, Scotland,
Wales, Hawaii, California and most of the
United States and Canadian provinces in
their motor home. They also enjoyed many
warm winters at Panama City Beach in
Florida. One of their greatest pride and
joys were their grandchildren, who they
spent many hours with spoiling them and just
watching them grow. After Red passed she
travelled with her merry widow friends,
Ruth, Belle and Peggy. Mom had a rich full
life and enjoyed herself at every
opportunity. She was a loving, kind person
with a great sense of humour. We will miss
her but believe she has gone on to something
better. The celebration of Jean’s life will
be at McBeath-Dynes Funeral Home 246
Thames Street South, Ingersoll for

Miss Me – But Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road,
And the sun has set for me, I want no
rites in a gloom filled room, Why cry
for a soul set free.
Miss me a little – but not too long, And
not with your head bowed low,
Remember the love that we once
shared, Miss me – but let me go.
For this is a journey that we all must
take, And each must go alone, It’s all a
part of the Master’s Plan, A step on the
road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to the friends we know, And bury
your sorrows in doing good deeds, Miss
me – but let me go.
Peacefully on December 26th, 2012 at

100 years old, passed away in Ingersoll,
Ontario on Wednesday, May 11, 2011. She was
predeceased by her husband Charles Donald
Crocker and her daughters Gail Robertson
(Don) and Dianne Miller (Jim).
Margaret was born in St. Mary’s, Ontario on
September 14, 1910 and was the daughter of
the late William Norman McIntyre and the
late Mary Murray (Rae) McIntyre. She was
predeceased by her brothers Walter, Don,
Melbourne and her sisters Norma Wilson and
Kay McElhone. During her working career she
was employed at London Life making actuarial
calculations and doing mathematical
calculations at which she excelled. In 1939,
after she married Charles Crocker (who also
worked at London Life), she reluctantly left
the company because of their policy which
did not permit a married couple to both be
employees of the company. Charles stayed
with London Life for the balance of his
career. They lived in London, Toronto and
Ingersoll but spent many years in Brampton
while their children were growing up and
where they both were active in community
activities and St. Paul’s United Church.
Margaret was a talented oil and water colour
painter as well as a seamstress. After
Charles’ retirement they moved back to
Ingersoll and spent winters in Florida where
she enjoyed and excelled in shuffleboard. A
stickler for details, she kept notes on lots
of little pieces of paper that she could
sometimes find. Throughout her life she
reflected her modest upbringing on a rural
farm and continued to save anything that
might have some future use. Much of her life
was spent serving her husband, family and
friends quietly and without effusive emotion
even though she took great pride in her
accomplishments. Her life saw so many
changes from the advent of electricity,
telephones and automobiles to space travel
and computerization but she sensed that
often the “old ways” were better. Her tasty
recipes for tarts and jams which she got
from her mother maybe proved her point.
She was proud of her age and delighted in
being able to tell store clerks what the
total price was (including tax) before they
could enter it on their cash register. She
laughed when she was stopped for speeding in
her late eighties and managed to convince
the police officer not to give her a ticket.
For the last years of her life she lived in
a retirement home and a nursing home in
Ingersoll and always appreciated the visits
made to her from family and friends. She
especially enjoyed it when her sister, the
late Norma Wilson, joined her in the
retirement home.
Margaret is survived by her sister Ruby Topp
(Toronto) and her son Brian Crocker
(Elizabeth) of Chester, NS along with
grandchildren Jim Robertson, David
Robertson, Sarah Miller, Laura (Miller)
McGrath, Kyle Miller, Catherine Crocker and
Susan (Crocker) MacLean together with great
grandchildren Victoria, Jake, Ruby, Hayden,
Keira, Ashton and Joshua as well as many
nieces, nephews and cousins.
A special thank you is extended to Jim
Miller for all his kind and caring
assistance that he gave Margaret in her
latter years.
A service of remembrance was held at the
McBeath-Dynes FuneralHome 246
Thames Street South, Ingersoll on Saturday,
May 14, 2011. Donations in Margaret’s memory
to the charity of your choice may be
