Family remaining here to fondly remember her, are sons Lyle (Joanne) Stittle, Les (Carmel) Stittle and Len (Deb) Stittle and daughter Lorann (Dan) Makortoff.

Doreen was born May 15, 1931 in Willowbrook, Saskatchewan. She came out to BC with her family and settled in Heffley Creek. She met her love and married Wilfred (Bob) on July 12, 1952. They resided in Heffley Creek and raised their family. Doreen was a member of the Ladies Social Club. Bob and Doreen were life time members of the HCCC and OAP Club. They contributed many hours helping and volunteering at the Heffley Creek Hall.
All the family would like to extend a big thank you to the staff at RlH 3 West , Dr. Ben Anders and Tammy for all your help with mom. Doreen wanted to thank the staff at The Hamlets at Westsyde. This was her home for the last six years, thank you for keeping her comfortable and safe.
“Please think of her as living
in the lives of those she touched
for nothing loved is ever lost;
and she was loved so much”
