Predeceased by her husband Bill in 2016 and infant great-grand daughter Emma in 2012, sisters Thelma and Helen, brother Evert, sisters in-law and brothers in-law.

Jessie was the youngest child born to Swedish immigrant parents John and Christine Teed.  She was extremely proud of her Swedish heritage and she grew up on the family farm west of Teulon.

In November 1952, she married Bill and they moved to the Ogilvie family farm in Erinview and had 4 children.  She was a true farmer’s wife, working inside and outside, doing whatever had to be done and then always having a meal prepared.  She was the community organizer, planning picnics, dances in the one room school, church lunches, Christmas parties at the fire hall,  and family BBQ’s and any other reason to have a get together.  Their house was a meeting and gathering place.  Rarely a day went by without someone stopping in for coffee and a bite.  She was a great cook and loved to dance.  The grandchildren could heel – toe polka and do the Schottische around the kitchen. Mom was the glue that held the family together, knowing what everyone was doing and loved attending the grandchildren’s sporting events and activities.

They sold the farm in 2015 and moved to Teulon.  Jessie enjoyed the town life visiting with her friends and socializing. Due to her declining mobility she moved into Rosewood Lodge Personal Care in 2021.  There she enjoyed the social activities, watching curling on TV, playing tile rummy and doing her Swedish weaving.

The family would like to especially thank Dr. Graham and all the staff at Rosewood Lodge for all the care and compassion they gave to Mom, and also to Ken Loehmer for his kindness and expertise.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, February 28, 2026 at 1:00 pm at Gunton – Greenwood Community Hall, Gunton, Manitoba.
