Loving mother of Bill (Cathy), Doug (Christine Pampel) and Ann (Robyn Harvey). Cherished grandmother of Andrew (Simone), Matthew (Dyane), Olivia Dewolf, and Zai Pitman. Proud great-grandmother of Cooper, Peyton, Hannah, Benjamin, and Holly. Born and raised in Windsor, Dorothy graduated from University of Toronto and worked as a teacher until her marriage.

Dear Ann:
I was very sorry to read of your mother’s passing, and wanted to let you know that my thoughts are with you, Robin, Olivia, Zia and the rest of your family at this time. While I never met your mother, I learned a good deal about her from you during our days at the Children’s Museum front desk. I’m sure you will miss her, but will take comfort from your many memories of her.
With best wishes
Susan
