Pettipas, Dora «Doris»
Agnes, age 74, Lundy, Guysborough
County
It is with
great sadness that I must announce the sudden passing of my mother
Dora (Doris) Agnes Pettipas of Lundy on May 21, 2023.
Mom was born in Guysborough on May 30, 1948, to the
late John Angus and Garnet Marie (Avery) Pettipas and raised in
Lundy.
She went to
school in Larry’s River until losing her father at the young
age of 14. At that time, she left school to help her mother
raise her siblings. Mom moved to Antigonish to work, where
she met Les Dort. They married in January of 1969 and welcomed their
daughter Velma in May of 1972. She worked for many years
doing house keeping at St. Martha’s Hospital. She also
worked for Silver’s Cleaning and did house cleaning and
painting for several homes over the years. Being a single
mother, she was always a hard worker and a strong independent woman,
who wanted to give her daughter the best life possible. Her
strength really showed when she fought her way through two battles
with cancer, only to be taken in a tragic car accident. Mom
was never a wealthy lady, but she never hesitated to help anyone in
need, always willing to lend a helping
hand.
She will be
missed tremendously by her loving daughter Velma (Paul) Schofield,
grandson Jeffrey, granddaughter Ashley (Ben) Mandel, their children
Hudson and Hadley, her brother and best friend Wilson, brother John
and many family members and friends. Predeceased by a daughter in
infancy, a sister in infancy and her brother
Leo.
Cremation has
taken place. Funeral Mass will be held in St. Peter’s
Church, Larry’s River on Saturday. May
27th at 11:00 am with Father Callistus
presiding followed by reception in the Community Hall.
Private burial.
Donations in
Doris’ name may be made to St. Martha’s Regional
Hospital Foundation (Oncology Department), 25 Bay Street, Antigonish,
NS B2G 2G4. Online condolences:
