She was predeceased by her husband Jim in 2003 and an infant daughter Mary in 1942.

Although Doreen was born in Moose Jaw, she was raised in Regina where she met Jim at the Trianon Ballroom. In 1938 they were married and moved to the family farm at Simpson, SK where they raised their three children.
In 1972 they retired and moved to Regina where they enjoyed closer contact with their children. They joined the Regina Lawn Bowling Club and became very involved with the club and the sport. Together Jim and Doreen travelled to almost every province attending National Competitions, often as competitors. During her competitive years, Doreen won Silver and Bronze medals in National competitions. Doreen served as President of the Regina Lawn Bowling Club and as President of the Saskatchewan Ladies Lawn Bowling Association. She also served as the Saskatchewan Provincial Director for a full term. She became an international judge officiating at the 1994 Commonwealth Games in Victoria, BC. In recognition of her devotion to the sport, she was awarded the 2001 Award of Merit by Bowls Canada.
Doreen was a skillful homemaker and crafter; over the years she knit everything from mittens to curling sweaters for her family. She created especially fine petit point needlework, which quickly became treasured family heirlooms.
Jim and Doreen had moved to Marian Chateau in 2000. Since May, failing health had determined her relocation to Sunset Extendicare.
The family extends its sincere appreciation to the staff at Marian Chateau and Sunset Extendicare for their kindness to their mother.
