Jean E. Killingbeck

June 2, 1932 - February 7, 2025

Jean E. Killingbeck, age 92 of Canton, formerly of Westland, passed away February 7, 2025.

Jean was a woman of great warmth, creativity, and love. She was known for her passion for sewing and quilting, and every member of her family treasures a quilt made with care and love by her hands. Jean’s quilts, each stitched with patience and thoughtfulness, were a reflection of her generous spirit and her attention to detail.

Together with her husband, Paul, Jean was a longtime and faithful member of Faith Church Denton in Belleville, Michigan, where they built lasting relationships with their community. Jean’s devotion to her faith was unwavering, and it was evident in the kindness she showed to others.

Above all, Jean’s greatest joy was her family, especially her beloved sons. Her love for them was boundless, and she took great pride in their lives and accomplishments. Jean leaves behind a legacy of love, warmth, and cherished memories that will continue to inspire those who knew her.

Jean was the beloved wife of Paul for 73 years. Loving mother of Jeff (Deb) and Scott (Mark Fisher) Killingbeck. Proud grandmother of Alyssa (Kevin Bennett) Killingbeck.
