Winnifred and Leonard Cooper. Her

Pearl. Mae met her high school sweetheart and future
husband
Jack Jasper

Jack worked for Hydro and they were transferred to different
cities as often as every 6 months for several years. Eventually
they settled in the countryside north of Paris, Ontario.
They had four children, Margaret, Nancy, Richard and Patricia.
Jack died in 1963 in his 39th year, leaving Mae to bravely raise
her young family alone. She never remarried. She used to tell us
that she had the best when she had married our father.
Mae worked for Ontario Hydro as a billing clerk until her
retirement. She loved living in the country and was able to live
in the family home until her death on
8 Sep 2004.
