BARRETT, Jeanette ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ On Wednesday, October 12, 2022 Jeanette Margaret Darling Robertson Barrett, lovingly known as Jeany headed off to her next adventure. She is survived by husband Doug Hobson of 23 years, children Mary (Dave) Pearce, Lisa Barrett Patterson, James (Christine) Barrett, John Hobson, Jason (Tanya) Hobson.

As her children grew, Jeany worked at selling real estate with Family Trust Realty and in 1980 was hired by the City of Oshawa where she worked with the Planning and IT departments, eventually retiring in 2003 to care for her aging parents.

She participated in many horticultural events including Junior Gardeners, fall fairs and flower arranging competitions (where she won many ribbons for her beautiful designs) and successfully obtaining a Trillium grant to refresh the gardens at the Town Hall. Her commitment to the community of Newcastle included participating in the "Newcastles of the World" event.
