Obituary of Jacqueline Ann Caines

Jacqueline Ann Caines of Saint John, wife of the late J. Lewis Caines, passed away on Sunday, February 14, 2010 at the Saint John Regional Hospital. Born at Titusville on September 18, 1938, she was a daughter of the late Frank and Irene (Titus) Cobb. Jackie attended school in East Saint John, as well as Hampton Consolidated School and Saint John Vocational School. She enjoyed knitting and crocheting, and volunteered for the Heart and Stroke Foundation, but her greatest joy was her great grandchildren, who were the apple of her eye. Jackie is survived by three sons, Stefen Caines, Brian Caines, and Chris Caines (Sue), all of Saint John; two daughters, Sharon Bekkering (Fred) of Prince Edward Island and Nancy Stacey (Terry) of Saint John; a sister, Eileen MacPhee of Saint John; grandchildren Christie, Stephanie, Cori, Jason, Colton, Gracen, and Brett; her three special great grandchildren, Jersey, Jordan, and Jacqueline; and several nieces and nephews. In addition to her husband and to her parents, Jackie was predeceased by a son, Andrew Lewis Caines; and by a sister, Dianne Kelly. In keeping with Jackie’s wishes, no formal funeral services will be observed at this time. Interment will take place in the spring at Titus Hill Cemetery. For those who wish, remembrances to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated by the family. The funeral arrangements are under the care and direction of Brenan's Funeral Home, 111 Paradise Row, Saint John (634-7424).
