The mark that we make on other people’s lives is truly what life is about, and Pete has deeply touched many hearts throughout his lifetime. He was dearly loved, respected and admired. A true ‘Gem’- Keep shining Pete! Our love always, from your devoted family and many friends.

Dorothy passed away peacefully (but inwardly wanting to get up and get going) on March 3, 2008 in Vancouver where she and her husband Jack had recently moved. Dorothy and Jack enjoyed 65 years of wonderful marriage, and Jack will deeply miss her care and devotion. There are untold joyful memories for her son Bryan and daughter-in-law Kathy. Her grandsons Graydon (with Simone and Dorothy’s new love, great-granddaughter Kiah) and Justin will miss her unconditional love. Dorothy enjoyed a close bond with her brothers Bill and Don (both predeceased) and their families. Special thanks go out to her friend Suan, her long-time family physician Dr. Wm. Dymon and the caring professionals at the B.C Cancer Agency and Palliative Care at Richmond General Hospital. We will be remembering Dorothy in an immediate family celebration of her life. We invite all her family and friends in Toronto and Vancouver to share (perhaps dance!) in their own private remembrances of her zest and enthusiasm for life. In lieu of flowers, Dorothy suggests that donations be made to the Search Gallery regeneration at Science World to provide enjoyment and inspiration for future generations.
