I remember the Dobson’s with fond memories for it was from their father that we purchased our 3 acres on the 5th line Albion. My sister and I visited your farm many times and I remember a time Doreen and Kathleen visited their property and I watched over Kathleen’s youngest. We had a picnic by the river. May you too cherish your memories and find peace and comfort from the love of your friends and family. Bonnie Leslie (Beckett)

I met Doreen many years ago when she was a new volunteer with Caledon Meals on Wheels and I was the Executive Director. Over those many years, Doreen became a very valued volunteer and also a very dear friend. Doreen was always willing to help in any way and deeply cared about the clients, other fellow volunteers, her church and anyone in her community that needed a helping hand. She was a very dear, sweet lady and it was truly an honour to have known her. My sincere condolences to all her family – I hope your memories of this lovely lady will bring you comfort in the days to come. Carol Kidd

My sincerest condolences to Doreen’s family and friends. While heaven has an angel returned, we are left to mourn our loss until we are reunited once more. Doreen was a strong, wise and faithful person with a kind, loving heart. Though I have only know her for brief part of her life, it was truly wonderful having her as a friend. May you find solace knowing she is where she longed to be, in God’s loving arms and no longer in pain. She lives on in our wonderful memories of her. May you mourn your loss but celebrate her life. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

So sorry to hear of Doreen’s death. Although we live close by our paths really only crossed when we met at the gym in Inglewood. I was always amazed by her grit and determination. Watching her do the spin classes was simply amazing. Her big smile and cheery greeting were always a happy positive start to the day

No matter how long we have our Mothers and grandmothers, we are never prepared to let them go. It is always too soon. They play such an important role in our lives, no matter the age.
I first met Doreen when I was attending Claude church and she was always welcoming and cheerful and very friendly and that lovely smile was always there.
She was a very active person and involved with her church, Meals on Wheels as well as other activities in her community.
She will surely be missed in the community.
God Bless you and your family

Doreen was an inspiration to everyone who knew her. She will be remembered by all of us at Caledon Meals on Wheels as such a sweet woman who delivered not only meals, but also smiles, and care and concern. She will be missed by all those who knew her and by all whose lives she touched.

We hope that you find comfort in all of your wonderful and happy memories.

Worked with Doreen for many years at Mayfield Secondary School. She was a remarkable lady full of life and love for all who knew her. My condolences to her family and know in your hearts she will be remembered by many for her kindness, her friendship and her wonderful sense of humor. Rest in peace Doreen.

Carolyn, Allan and Daniel -deepest condolences – and more than a little sense of shock and grief…may the strength of Doreen’s faith sustain all of you, Nancy & Markus and the rest of the family our thoughts and prayers

Doreen truly lived a faithful life. Her smile welcomed all into her kind and generous world and we were blessed to have known her.

Sorry to hear about the passing of Doreen. During my years as Principal of Mayfield, Doreen was a key staff member. She was a big part of our Regional Arts program and one of the reasons that the program was so successful. I remember Doreen as a hard working, accommodating staff member. Doreen spoke of her family often and was very proud of them. We are very sorry that we cannot be with you on Thursday.

Doreen was a big part of the Riverdale Fitness Mill family. Her kindness and generosity with everyone will be sadly missed by her friends and staff members at Riverdale

I was so very sad to hear the news about Doreen. I was honoured to be a colleague as an art teacher in the Regional Arts Programme at Mayfield SS. Doreen will be missed. My condolences to your family.

My condolences to Doreen’s family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Bev Thordarson

Sincerest condolences to all of Doreen’s family. Although I haven’t seen her in years, I remember her as a loving, kind, hardworking young woman. With loving thoughts and prayers to her children, who may remember me as a teacher at Herb Campbell and the children’s choir leader at Claude Presbyterian Church. I am sure you have many happy memories that you will hold close in your hearts.

We are very sorry to hear of Doreen’s passing. Doreen was a vibrant member of Riverdale gym. We always enjoyed chatting with her before or after class. Doreen kept the Leafs going. She was such an avid fan. Our thoughts are with you.

Please accept my deepest condolence on the loss of Doreen, who was always a kind, caring, efficient, and invaluable help to me and my family who shared ministry moments at Claude Presbyterian church. May God grant each of you comfort and strength today and in the days ahead as you miss and mourn for Doreen. With love and prayers, Bob Hamilton

Sending our sympathies, thoughts & prayers to Doreen’s family. We enjoyed your Mom’s emails, with proud photos of church gatherings, family photos, Christmas greetings, and certainly when we gathered for the Evangel Hall Dinners, it was wonderful to have a nice chat with her and one of the girls. Your Mom will be missed by so many, she was a true spirit to Claude Church & the community. May you each find comfort and strength, in each passing day, and all your memories will stay close to your hearts forever.
Yours Truly, Brenda & Rob Kavanagh, Orangeville

We are very sadden to hear of the passing of Doreen. I have wonderful memories of Doreen during my childhood times at Claude Church and more recently with serving at the dinners at Evangel Hall. The Lane family and the Shackleton family have great history together in the Inglewood and Claude Church communities. Doreen was a good and caring friend to our mother for which we will always be thankful. A very special and loving lady, Doreen will definitely be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her. Sincerest condolences to Nancy, Carolyn, Finlay, Noreen and families for your loss. With love, Bonnie and Rob (Matthew, Andrew, Shawn), Oshawa
