Dorothy is also survived by many nieces and nephews throughout North America; special thanks to niece Patti. Special thanks to Blake, Eileen, Colleen, and the grand kids who spent many loving hours at Dorothy's side and a thank you to her many friends who cared deeply for her. Thank-you Angela for brightening up Dory's life with your beautiful voice. Dory was very independent and lived in her own home until she became ill. Her feisty nature and sense of humour made her a fun person to be around. Dory loved to attend events with her friends. She took pride in being the best dressed whenever she went. She loved being outdoors whether it was tending to her beautiful yard or going for long walks at the river with her constant companion Shadow. Dory was young at heart and always looking for something exciting to try such as parasailing, hot air ballooning or white water rafting. Camping trips to Northern Saskatchewan were always a summer family tradition that Dory looked forward to. She had fun being a Grandma to her three dearly loved grandchildren, Maddie, Mack and Em. They enjoyed many sleepovers when they were younger and loved having campfires in the backyard, watching Mr. Bean and eating Grandma's most delicious sandwiches. Special thanks to all the Palliative Care staff for the amazing care and compassion Dory received while at St. Paul's Hospital. In respect of Dory's wishes, a private family gathering will be held in her memory. Arrangements have been entrusted to Prairie View Chapel and Crematorium, 244-8873. --Published in Saskatoon StarPhoenix on Dec. 7, 2010.
