Mogensen, Jens (Peter)

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Jens (Peter) Ancher Mogensen at his home in Cambridge on December 26th, 2024 at the age of 70, leaving behind many memories with those he loved. Jens was born in Toronto, Ontario on March 13th, 1954. He was the beloved son of the late Fanny Mogensen (née Nielsen), dear younger brother of Mirja Ramsey (George) of Toronto, the late Suzanne Mogensen, and Ejler Mogensen (Liz) of Victoria, British Columbia, and he was the loving uncle of Christina Ramsey and Oscar MacDonald (Diana). He was father to two daughters, Lisa Mogensen-Harkner (Ryan) and Eva Mogensen (Darin), and they will miss him greatly. He was also the beloved grandfather of Ursula, Amelia, and Gwendolyn.

Jens worked for years with Able Atlantic Taxi. He found joy in music and was a skilled drummer, playing drums for a time with the London, Ontario rock band, Melinite. He was an avid boxing fan, loved animals, and never hesitated to lend a helping hand. He was also a flea market enthusiast and had a passion for collecting antiques. Known for having a sweet tooth, he often enjoyed cheesecake and ice cream. Jens dreamt big and never hesitated to follow those dreams. He will be fondly remembered for his exceptionally cheerful and friendly demeanor, his fun-loving nature, and his fantastic sense of humour.

Cremation has taken place.
