 Jeannette Marguerite Mulhall, born December 9, 1932, passed away on October 5, 2022 at the age of 89 years. Jeannette was born in Regina, SK to Marguerite (Macht) and Gerald Haughey. She was the youngest and only girl to her two older brothers, Desmond and Jerome.

Jeannette is survived by her eight children, Vincent (Cheryl), Michael, Karen (Keith) McIlmoyl, Daniel (Cindy), Diane (Dave) Blocka, Linda (Christopher) Lyons, Colleen and Timothy; 16 grandchildren, Jeanie Braun, David Mulhall, Tanner Mulhall, Kelsey McIlmoyl, Adam McIlmoyl, Logan McIlmoyl, Sarah Koback, Stephanie Mulhall, Jordan Mulhall, Danielle Mulhall, Kevin Blocka, Jennifer Vrinten, Leo Blocka, Carter Blocka, Michael Lyons, and Andrew Lyons; 17 great-grandchildren; 2 great-great-grandchildren; brother and sister-in-law, Desmond (Lauretta) Haughey; sister-in-law, Elizabeth Haughey; and sister-in-law, Lorraine Mulhall. She was predeceased by her husband, Leo Mulhall; her parents, Marguerite and Gerald Haughey; her brother, Jerome Haughey; mother and father-in-law, Richard and Ethel Mulhall; sister and brother-in-law, Mary and Jerry Bernard; sister and brother in-law, Gerald and Hazel Mulhall; brother-in-law, John “Jack” Mulhall; brother and sister-in-law, Joseph and Rose Mulhall.

Mom and dad met while attending Notre Dame College in Wilcox, SK and were married shortly after in 1955 in Regina, SK. By 1968 they would become a family of 10. After a short stay in Alberta, and with the help of mom’s Uncle John and Aunt Anne Macht, they settled in Prince Albert, SK where they would create a life together for 61 years.

A loving wife, mother, and grandmother, mom would become the matriarch with an artistry for painting, sewing (especially halloween costumes for her children/grandchildren), knitting, quilting, and gardening; all of which would become her legacy. As a homemaker, mom is remembered for her patience, her life skills teachings and her extraordinary support. When her children were grown, mom went to work, first as a hostess, and then as a travel agent where she was provided the opportunity to travel the world; creating many cherished memories. When mom retired in 1993, she continued to place her focus on her family (especially her grandchildren), her garden and her community work.

Mom was the positive motivator and encouragement for all of her children. She will be remembered for her grace, her kindness, her humble spirt, and her many life stories. Of strong Irish heritage, we send her this blessing:

“Until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.”
