Obituary of Christian Jensen

The passing of Christian “Chris” Eric Jensen of Fredericton, NB, husband of Susan Henley occurred on Thursday, November 6, 2014 at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital. Born in Plaster Rock, NB, on February 7, 1961, he was the son of Eileen Taylor and Phil Jensen. Along with his parents and wife, he is survived by his daughters, Jordan Bull of Toronto, ON and Courtney Bull of Saint John, NB; siblings, Lisa Jensen Jones and Peter Jensen; nieces and nephews, Jessie Kenny, Stephen Jensen, Ted Jones and Kate Michaud; mother and father in law, Marlene and David Henley of Woodstock, NB; sisters in law, Stephanie (Troy) Henley Beasley of Maitland, FL and Pamela (Stephen) Henley Hutchinson of Oakville, ON. Chris was predeceased by his brother, Stephen Jensen. Chris was a highly respected financial advisor and was the president of Jensen Financial Group. He took great pride in his client relationships and enjoyed being able to help provide solid advice to each and every one of them. Chris was an avid snowmobiler and was the ultimate organizer when it came to planning each and every trip from accommodations, to where to eat and what to pack. Everyone was looked after. Chris loved to salmon fish and was a member of the Miramichi Salmon Federation Club. He was a self taught skilled carpenter and loved building things for everyone. The love for his dogs trumped just about anything, the first being the amazing Sprocket, Molly and Charley and now Jagr and Kayda. If you loved his dogs, you had a friend for life. Chris touched the lives of many people and he will be greatly missed by all. Visitation will take place at York Funeral Home, 302 Brookside Drive, on Saturday, November 8, 2014 from 2-5 pm. A Memorial Service will be held at Nashwaaksis United Church on Sunday, November 9, 2014 at 2 pm with Rev. J. D. Kennedy officiating. In lieu of flowers, remembrances may be made to Carleton County Animal Shelter, Fredericton and or Oromocto SPCA, Fredericton Hospice or to the charity of the donor’s choice.
