She is also survived by her sisters, Dedy, Joan and brother Jack. Dorothy was born May 28, 1922 in Matapedia, Bonaventure, Quebec, which she was always very proud of. Moms life could best be described as "Coffee was always on", "The door was always open". Mom always had time for you. She would sit down and really listen to you. She was a friend to everyone. Her family and friends were her world. She took great joy in her children and grandsons. Her heart and her home were always open and she left a lasting impression on all who knew her. We will remember her for her great laugh and loving nature.

May the wind be always at your back. May the sunshine be warm upon your face, The rains fall soft upon your fields and, Until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hands. CROPO FUNERAL CHAPEL in care of arrangements - 586-8044.
