I attended Prince Albert Public School and was a very young student of Mrs. Holtby.
I can honestly say she was one of my favorite teachers at Prince Albert Public School and still have very fond memories of her.
She was patient, attentive but no nonsense and you knew you were in trouble when she would give you the look...
All grown up with my own family and would see her around town and she always stopped to say hello and wanted to know all about my family. She still considered me her student and always wanted to know how everyone was doing...
Jean was a Gem and I am very appreciative of having known such a wonderful, caring and kind person.
I am truly sorry for your loss.
She will be dearly missed.
Sincerely,
Jayne Kane (Carr)

I enjoyed Jean's service. I think she got a good send-off. It was interesting to hear about her as the jelly bean teacher. As I'm sitting there in my pew, I looked down and there was one lone orange jelly bean sitting on the floor under the next pew. I`m thinking Jean must have dropped it on her way to meet her Maker. How often do you see a jelly bean just sitting on the floor in the church.

To the Holtby Family
Another one of the old-school members of Reach Township families has passed on. I didn't have Jean as a teacher but passed by Prospect school hundreds of times on the way to Prince Albert. Our families met often in passing-- at the farm, at church, and out to dinner at Haugen's. My deepest condolences.

My sincere condolences to the Holtby family. Mrs. Holtby was my grade 2 teacher way back in 1967. Whenever I came home to Port Perry and saw her, she was always interested in where life had taken me and what I was doing and she would always ask about all my brothers and sisters who she also taught. Such a kind lady always with a twinkle in her eye! Know that your mom and grandma touched many lives and we are all better for having known her!!

My condolences to the family. She was my first grade teacher. How many first grade teachers send personal notes to her ex-students when they graduate high school? Only the exceptional ones.

Jean was such a loving, giving person. I enjoyed her friendship while I attended St. John's for several years. My family and I also enjoyed many delicious meat pies which she made and gave the revenue to St. John's. Whatever adversity she suffered, she smiled and made you feel good. She will be truly missed by everyone who knew and loved here.

Our dear sweet Jean: I remember the first day I met you, working at Mike Fowler's office. You were a feisty lady then. Then we started bringing our young family to St. John's Presbyterian Church and Jean smothered the boys with hugs and kisses. When we moved to Listowel she sent the boys off with a parting gift and continued to send Christmas cards with $5.00 for each boy. Her baking was awesome and her energy was endless. St. John's has lost a real trooper. To Linda and family, our sincere condolences on Jean's passing - but she left soooooooo many memories. She will be missed.
