It is with saddened hearts that we announce the passing of Jean Eloise Bengtson (nee Rance), loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, aunt, sister and a friend to many. Jean was born in Medicine Hat in 1942 and passed away in Medicine Hat in 2020. Jean had a smile for all and was a kind, caring and loving woman. She appreciated the beauty and wonder of nature, time spent with family and friends, her yard and flowers she worked so hard on, and the sunshine on her face. Jean had a passion for walking and was regularly seen enjoying her many daily walks around her beloved hometown of Suffield. She always held a special place in her heart for babies and loved to watch children playing. She will be lovingly missed by all whose life she touched. Jean is survived by her husband Ron; children, Randy, Greg, Cindy (Copper), Michele (Ian) & Tanya (Ed); eight grandchildren; 16 1/2 great grandchildren; four sisters; three brothers; and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. She was predeceased by her parents Lois & Fred Rance and sister Audrey. The Funeral Service will be held at SAAMIS MEMORIAL FUNERAL CHAPEL, # 1 Dunmore Road SE, on Thursday, January 9th, 2020 at 2pm with a reception to follow at the Redcliff Legion.

Deepest condolences to the entire family, what a great lady. Your in my thoughts and prayers
I am sorry to hear of Jean’s passing, and extend my sincere condolences to the family. I remember seeing Jean each year in Edmonton at the CFR where we would catch up on family memories and happenings.
As I am away for the Winter, I won’t be able to attend the funeral but will remember Jean as a friendly and giving person.
Fondly, Jay(cousin)
Our sincere condolences to Ron and all the family on the passing of Jean. Sadly, we did not find out about this or we would not have missed her service.
Love to all, Terry and Don Osadczuk and families
