June 14, 1930 ~ March 29, 2017
Jean Katherine Rogocki (nee Zolondek) passed away peacefully at East Gate Lodge on Wednesday, March 29, 2017, at the age of 86.
Jean was predeceased by her husband Michael, her brothers John Zolondek and Joe Zalondek, and her partner Peter Skrupski. Jean is survived by her children: Joyce (Bob) Jackson, their children Brad (Theresa) Jackson and Tracy Jackson; Jim (Sandra) Rogocki, their children Laura (Chris) Skiba and Mark Rogocki; Don (Janet) Rogocki, their children Eric, Ryan and Kailey Rogocki; as well as great-grandchildren April, Summer, Josh, Camryn, Emma, Mateia, Zachary and Theoren. She is also survived by her sisters Francis Bukoski and Violet (Ed) Marek, brother Stanley Zolondek and sister-in-law Elsie Zalondek, as well as many nieces and nephews.
Jean was born in the R.M. of Springfield on the family farm in 1930. She married Mike in 1949. They lived on the farm in Allegra, MB until 1963, when they moved to Beausejour. Jean was very involved in the Catholic Women’s League at St. Mary Roman Catholic Church and enjoyed many activities with these wonderful women.
Jean enjoyed spending time with family and cooking large meals. She enjoyed gardening and usually planted enough food to feed the entire family. Perogie making was one of her specialties. She passed this skill on to many others. Jean spent many years at the sewing factory in Beausejour; later, she was a custodian at both schools.
Funeral Liturgy will be celebrated at St. Mary Roman Catholic Church on Thursday, April 6 at 10:30 a.m. Interment will follow at St. Mary Parish Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, if friends and family so desire, donations can be made in Jean’s memory to the Alzheimer’s Society of Manitoba or St. Mary Roman Catholic Building Fund.
Mom will be sadly missed by all of us.

Condolences for the family of “Jean Katherine Rogocki (nee Zolondek)”
Dear Cousins: I was very saddened to hear of Jean’s passing. She and her sisters and brothers were special to me, an only child, when we lived about half a mile apart on the farm. There are memories of playing “Danish rounders” outside, dressing paper dolls inside the house and much teasing. More recent memories include having lunch with other cousins and Jean at Beausejour, just two years ago. She will be missed by so many of us. Nadia (Yaremko) Hanson

Our condolences to Jean’ s family on her passing. Many fond memories of our conversations while we both worked at the old Beausejour Elementary School . Rest in peace. Bob Osiowy
