MCCABE, Margaret Jean Leslie McCabe - February 10, 1935 – September 9, 2024

It is with deep sorrow we announce the passing of Margaret Jean Mccabe, at the age of 89 years. Jean was an absolutely beautiful woman, both inside and out. She was a loving and caring wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and friend to all whose lives she blessed.

Jean was a successful entrepreneur, spending 20 years running herself established family business, "McCabe's Cheese Nook", in Bowmanville. She was later joined by her daughter Pam, and they ran the business for the last 5 years together. Above all, Jean was selfless and kind-hearted. She was always thinking of others and making them feel welcome. Every time you visited you were immediately asked if you were hungry and welcomed in with open arms. She is a beautiful soul.

Jean was very creative. Always knitting, quilting, and perfecting her gardens. She enjoyed golfing and watching sports on TV during her evenings with Doug.

Jean was the loving and devoted wife of her late husband Doug McCabe. Pre-deceased by her parents Marjorie and Leslie Atkinson, and her son, Frank. Jean was also the beloved mother of Pam (+John), Wendy (Brian), and Donna (Kevin). She was the proud grandmother of Brett (Kandas), Candace, Colin (Ashley), Michelle (Cory), Ken, Robb (Noelle), and Krystyna (Tyler). Jean also cherished her great grandchildren Eastyn, Tyson, Arya, Karson, Peyton, Atlas, Aurora, Paxton, Evan, Maykayla, Audryna, Amari and Emerson. She lived a full life as a wonderful mother, businesswoman, and friend.

Her departure leaves an unfillable void in our lives, yet we find comfort in the memories and everlasting love we shared.
