Wendy Joyce Jalbert Obituary
Wendy Joyce Jalbert, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away peacefully on March 7, 2025, in her hometown of Medicine Hat, Alberta, at the age of 66 years. Born on July 8, 1958, to Ronald and Deanna Coleman, Wendy's early years were filled with joy and a love for animals, particularly horses, as she spent memorable summer vacations on Harrison's farm near Aneroid, Saskatchewan. Wendy graduated from Crescent Heights High School in 1976. On July 16, 1977, she married her soulmate, Owen Jalbert, and together, they built a beautiful life filled with love and support.
She took great pride in their family cabinetry and renovation business, where she enjoyed working alongside Owen whenever possible. Wendy's nurturing nature extended to her role as a mother to her son, Kendall (Kacie), and as a grandmother to her beloved grandsons, Stetson and Bennett. Her family was her world, and she cherished every moment spent with them. Throughout her life, she exemplified a heart for service, tirelessly putting the needs of others before her own. Her compassionate spirit shone brightly in her many endeavors, including her employment with various businesses in Medicine Hat, where she became a cherished community member.
She also devoted countless hours to volunteering with organizations such as 4-H and the Medicine Hat Exhibition and Stampede, always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. Wendy was also a proud member of organizations such as Job's Daughters and the Order of the Eastern Star, where she made many lasting friendships throughout her life. She also enjoyed gardening and camping with family and friends. Wendy also leaves to cherish her memory her mother, Deanna Coleman; sister, Lynn (Brian) Konrad; as well as numerous nieces, grandnieces, nephews, and grandnephews who will miss her dearly.
Her father, Ronald Coleman, preceded her death in 2020. Wendy's strength and spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
