Jessie was born on February 9, 1937, the fourth of seven children in the McGowan family. Jessie was
raised in Cartwright, Manitoba and made her adult and retirement home in Boissevain, Manitoba where
she also began and retired from a dedicated career with MTS (Manitoba Telephone System). Always
active, Jessie enjoyed many activities including maintaining her yard in town, enjoying her cottage at
Rock Lake, Manitoba, camping, playing cards, Chinese checkers, dancing, and travelling. A lively
conversationalist, always up for a good laugh, and fun to be around, Jessie made many friends and
memories that will be cherished by all those who knew her.
