    We were sorry to hear of Dorothy’s passing. Her sense of humour and laugh will always be remembered. Ken & Dorothy visited us in Surrey several times and were very generous in offering their home and van for our family visit quite some years ago. May all the good memories help you through this time of sorrow and knowing that many others share your sadness.

    Ken, Kelly & Family, Leanne & Family,
    Dorothy was very kind and wanted the best for her family. I met her when she had taken on the role of always being ready to care for her grandchildren. She had special skills which she used when she accommodated each of their needs. She always smiled at the mention of their names!
    I send my condolences to all. Cherish your good memories and God Bless!

    Dear Kenny, Leanne and Kelly
    Rodney Hudson informed me yesterday of aunt Dorothy’s passing. Uncle Dave Hudson provided me with an update of the family at Joan’s funeral last May. This is definitely sad news and my sympathies go out to all of you. Although distant, my memories are very positive when I think of aunt Dorothy. I will pass this information on to my daughter Rose. All the best during this difficult time. Jeff Hudson.

    Jim and I were sorry to hear of Dorothy’s passing.  Although most times I would only see Dorothy years apart, whether in Kemptville or B.C., she always had a warm, welcoming smile.  Know that  you and your families are in our thoughts at this time of sorrow.

    Dear Ken, Kelly, Leanne and families Nancy and I would offer our sincerest condolences at this time. Dorothy gave you all strength and love to be the family envied by many and in her passing the strength to endure and continue living the life she wanted for you all. My memories return to my age of 10 and while staying with Grandpa and Granny in Kemptville I met this beautiful young lady that Ken brought home one evening and I can still visualize the warm smile, the sparkle in her eyes and wonderful personality. Little did I know then that Ken and Dorothy would be together for so many years, contribute so much to their community, and like ourselves be the parents of 2 beautiful young ladies. What a Legacy!! Ken – Nancy and I have every intention of being with you on Friday to celebrate the life of Dorothy and personally give you are condolences. God speed Dorothy – till we all meet again.
