November 8, 1935 – September 30, 2016

Doreen got her call on September 30, 2016 at the Vulcan Hospital after a
lengthy illness of C.O.P.D.

Doreen is survived by her children: Karyn (Peter), Vernon (Joan) & James
(Leeann). Her grandchildren: Jason (Amanda), Alesha (Derek), Penny
(Joe), Billy (Shantelle) and Holli Jo. Great grandchildren: Dane, Sara,
Brook, Shelby, Kayden, Chloe, William & Cooper. She was predeceased by
her husband Bill, daughter Lisa Viola, parents Bill & Hazel, brother
Leonard.

Doreen would like to let you know that her work here is done. She
received a call, sort of an offer you can’t refuse, for a destination
from which she will not be returning. She will now be enjoying a long
awaited reunion with family and friends she has not seen in a long time.
Her new journey takes her to a wonderful place where she will be taking
full beautiful breaths, socializing, dancing, gardening and telling
stories to her heart’s content. Music, laughter and love are guaranteed
and food is delicious. She left detailed instructions for her children,
grandchildren and great grandchildren to celebrate her life here, which
has now been completed. Doreen is now at peace.

We, her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren want to let her
know that she did a remarkable job and wish her a safe journey. We love
her very much. We will miss her immensely. We will always remember her
smile, her devotion, her warmth, her wit, her energy, her love for life,
her love for family and friends. She worked hard all her life until
illness overcame her. She made a difference in all the lives she
touched. We invite you to join us and celebrate together

If you wish to say goodbye personally, Doreen’s viewing will be at the
Vulcan Funeral Home on Thursday, October 6, 2016 from 12 to 2 pm.
Cremation will follow the farewells.

A Celebration of Life will take place on Friday, October 14, at 2 p.m.,
at Vulcan Royal Canadian Legion, 240 Sinclair Road, in Vulcan AB.
