OBITUARY
Dolores Sandy
8 January , 1934 – 13 September , 2018
Peacefully on September 13, 2018 after a long struggle with dementia our mother, grandmother and great grandmother passed away at Oakview Place Personal Care Home.
Dolores was born on January 8, 1934 in Fraserwood Manitoba. She spent her childhood on the family farm part of a large family. This love of the land, nature and gardening remained with her for her entire life. She ventured to the city to complete high school. As a young woman she worked as an administrative assistant – a job she spoke of proudly and fondly her whole life.
Dolores married in 1954 and soon became a full time mother and homemaker. Throughout her life she enjoyed gardening, knitting, playing bridge, gourmet cooking, teaching Sunday School and in her later years spending countless hours caring for, teaching and loving her grandchildren. Her summers were spent at Winnipeg Beach creating wonderful lifetime memories for them. None of the kids will forget her “porridge every morning” rule!
Dolores was predeceased by her parents Daniel and Annie Becker, her brothers Fred and Jack, her sister Violet and her grandsons Zack and Isaac.
She is survived by her daughters Kim Midford (Jim), Dani Diduck (Glenn), Andrea Babinsky (Mike) and Peggy Sorenson (Todd); grandchildren Jamie (Jeff), Jeremy (Stephanie), Krista(Phil), Courtney (Nyle ), Lindsay ( Mike), Nicole ( Derek), Alex ( Jenna) Jaclyn ( Steve),Danielle, Mackenzie ( Michael), Callie ( Jordan )Jake, Callum and Logan; great grandchildren Jordon , Jaxon, Ryan, Olivia, Isabella, Jaidyn , Zoey, Kate, Emmett, Peyton, Bowen, Lucas , Benjamin, Grace , Parker, Theo and Emersyn.
She is survived also by her sisters Helen Wright and Vicki Pidhayecki and their families, her brothers Ted, Don, Adam, Dennis and Ken Becker and families.
A special thank you to all the staff at Oakview Place who so lovingly and gently took care of our mom and provided ongoing support to our family. You are very special people.
The memorial service will be held at 10:00 a.m. Friday September 21 at Atlantic-Garden City United Church 725 Atlantic Avenue. Interment to happen at a later date.
If folks so wish donations may be made in Dolores’s memory to Pueblito Canada or Doctors Without Borders. Both were organizations she supported for many years.
