ROSS _ Jean February 8, 1916 - October 22, 2007 At the age of 91 years, Jean Ross passed away peacefully at the Cedars Villa Nursing Home on October 22, 2007. She was born at home in Delia, Alberta and was raised on the family farm. Jean rode her horse to a one-room school house from Grade 1 through to Grade 9.

Jean then taught Grades 1 through 9 in a one-room school house at Starland. She married and had two children - Nina and Jack. She helped build a house where she mixed the concrete by hand for the basement. Jean went back to university at age forty-one to upgrade her teaching certificate. She taught at several schools in and around Calgary for several years and became interested in helping brain damaged children. Jean was an avid and accomplished artist both in oil and acrylic.
