Jennifer Anne Cole

April 10, 1953 - March 6, 2023

It is with a sense of peace yet profound sadness, we share that after a heroic and courageous battle, Jennifer's Cancer journey has ended. Jennifer passed peacefully at Ed’s House Northumberland Hills Hospice Care Centre March 6, 2023 at the age of 69 surrounded in the love of her family.

Jennifer was a lifelong resident of Northumberland County and her favourite views were the rolling hills of the Cole Farm that she shared with her husband of 49 years, Allan.

Jennifer was the ultimate SuperMom to Ashley, Justin and Meg. She was very supportive of their life goals, careers and adventures. She was very proud of the lives they are building with Kelsey, Connie and James. She was delighted that they all chose to live close and visit often.

Her grandchildren, Lorelai, Noah, Beau and Cora were the lights of her life. She loved them fiercely and enjoyed many special times with them.

Jennifer, was a daughter of the late John and Freda Lean and was one of the infamous "Lean Girls". She loved their special Sister's lunches. She will be greatly missed by Wendy, Barbara, Joe, Susan and their families. She was heartbroken in 2016 when she lost her baby sister Dorothy after a courageous journey of her own. She was a proud member of the Cole Family and will be fondly remembered.

Jennifer spent her career working with young offenders as a probation officer. She always saw the positive in her “kids” and made a difference for many troubled youth. After retirement, she discovered a love of kayaking and spent many hours on the water or having lunch dates with her beloved co-workers. She demonstrated that working life can be great when you have wonderful work friendships. She continued after retirement working with various organizations devoted to children.

She particularly loved Camp Quin-Mo-Lac and was a proud member of the "Twisted Sisters," an exceptional group of women who were her very best friends.

Jennifer received exemplary care at the Durham Regional Cancer Centre. She was very fond of Dr. Rothenstein and Dr. Broomfield. She delighted in showing off pictures of her grandchildren to all her fabulous nurses there. Our family will always be grateful for the innovative treatment plans they developed that allowed her much more time than we ever dreamed possible. We owe a debt of gratitude to our favourite nurses from St Elizabeth’s and to Dr. Mule and the incredible staff at Ed’s House.

A Celebration of Jennifer’s life will take place at the Cold Springs Hall 3844 Burnham St N, Cobourg, ON K9A 4J9 Saturday, March 18, 2023 from 1:00 – 4:00 PM. A sharing of memories will take place at 2:00 PM. Due to limited internet service, the service will NOT be livestreamed. A recording of the service will be uploaded to this page shortly after.

In lieu of flowers, donations to Durham Regional Cancer Centre, Camp Quin-Mo-Lac or a charity of your choice would be greatly appreciated.

Jennifer Cole is a courageous, happy , loving woman. That will not change in this world or the next. I picture her marching forward smiling to her new continuing journey bringing all her stories, memories & loved ones with her. She will be ready to do anything in her power to help in any way possible. She will be an angel of action looking down on all & who she loved. Jennifer & I shared similar careers that allowed us to work with Young offenders, teens & families. We would talk about "Our Kids" & shared our stories of the challenges, but also about how much joy. happiness & love they brought us. I will always remember Jennifer & her Smile ,Laugh but most of all her joy & love of life, her courage, & all that love she gave to "her kids" & her world. Jennifer rest in peace & I look forward to when we can meet again. I know what a loss this is for Jennifer's family,friends.. talk often of her & may all those precious stories & memories give you peace & healing blessings.

After hearing of this sad news, I was thinking about how much I had wanted to 'be like Jennifer' after having met her and known her as a friend of the family, many moons ago. Strong and smart, she was such an admirable young woman, with her head on straight, and I just know how influential she would have been to the youth she worked with and for. Bless your hearts, to each of you who will mourn her, and know that many of us will hold you in our prayers. Catherine, Laura, Sarah, and John Ford.

Brad Halls - March 7, 2023

To the family and friends of Jennifer Cole... I was very saddened today to learn of Jennifer's death. She was within a few weeks of precisely my own age, and so I am only too aware that she has left us far too early. I came to know Jennifer when I was living and practising law in Cobourg, and worked frequently with young offenders, so I came to know Jennifer in her role as a probation officer. She was very dedicated to her profession, and saw her role as not simply monitoring or supervising young people in trouble with the law, but as actually "helping" them to take positive lessons from their experience on probation, and I have no doubt that dozens of young people in Northumberland became better people from just having the opportunity to have Jennifer work with them. She was a very kind, conscientious person who was a joy to work with. I can only begin to understand how much a loss her passing will be to her family and close friends. You will all be in my thoughts. Brad Halls, Fergus, Ontario (formerly of Cobourg)

Nancy Bruce - March 7, 2023
