It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Jean Matilda Doak, on Sunday November 2nd, 2025, at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital at the amazing age of 94.

Born in Maxwell, New Brunswick on July 14th, 1931, to the late Hugh and Susan (Bustard) Graham.

Jean is survived by her one daughter, Carolin Bradbury (Jeff), her granddaughter Chloe Henderson (Nolan Hanson) and her adored great grandson, Drew. Not related, but just as intwined in her life, her neighbors Nancy and Bobby English, and their children Jennie, Erin and Alex. Thank-you for always welcoming her in every celebration, keeping her driveway cleared, and simply including her in your lives over the last 4 decades.

She had a large family and was the last remaining sibling; she was predeceased by her sisters Pauline Slater, Marjorie Griffiths, Marion Graham, Joyce Whalen, Jacqueline Dickinson and brother Blair Graham.

She loved staying up late talking on the phone and watching all sports but especially curling. She loved to knit and has donated hundreds of hats to hospitals for newborns. Late in life she spent her retired years babysitting children and because of her big heart she always grew close to those families, many would keep in touch as they grew older. Jean was an active member of church, St. Paul's Presbyterian, and the Oddfellows/ Rebekah's club. Her greatest joy was her great grandson who lovingly referred to her as GG and he will miss her greatly.

Visitation at Carleton Funeral Home, 337 Lockhart Mill Road Jacksonville Saturday November 8th from 5:00pm – 8:00pm.

Funeral service will be held on Sunday November 9th at 3:00pm Carleton Funeral Home Chapel

Interment will follow the funeral at the St David's Presbyterian cemetery in Kirkland.

A reception will follow, location to TBD.

Our sincere thank you to the staff at the Riverside Court for the kind and compassionate care they gave during her 3 years there. Also, Jean's time at the Dr. Everett Chalmers hospital was short, but a thank you must be given to the staff on 4NE for their thoughtful and attentive care.

In lieu of flowers, for those who wish, a donation can be made to either the Upper River Valley Cancer Support Group or the Woodstock St. Paul's Presbyterian Church.
