Obituary of Doris Irene May
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Doris Irene May on Monday, March 24th, at Kingsway Lodge in St. Marys in her 94th year. Beloved wife of 65 years of Walter Harold May (died 2016).
Loving Mother of Kent May and his wife Phyllis of Blenheim and Lanna-Sue and her husband Herb Jantz of Sarnia. Predeceased by sons Gregory (1959) and Reid (1961). Much loved Nana of Becky, Isaac, Karl, and Max (wife Brittany). Great Grandmother of Navy Grace. Sister of Shirley Rogers (late Roger), Marjorie King (late Bill), Harry (Sharon), David (Anne), Ron (Beth) and Sister-in-law of Gladys (late Norman). Predeceased by Brothers and their wives Carman (Yvonne), Norman (Evelyn) and Allen (Ruth).
Born in Biddulph Township, near Lucan and growing up in Ingersoll, she was the eldest of nine children of Edward and Hazel Mott. She spent her later teenage years and earlier married life in Woodstock, in which Chalmers United Church formed an important part of those days. Moving to St. Marys in 1970, Doris and Harold operated St. Marys Home Furnishings Ltd. on Queen St. for a number of years. Later, upon retirement, they opened their home as a bed and breakfast business in the good weather, then wintered in Florida. They also took many trips abroad, including around the world voyage in a cargo tainer ship in 2000.
The family would like to extend their sincere gratitude to the amazing staff at Kingsway Lodge and Dr. Donaldson. Also, her special volunteer friend, Margaret Jean Watt, whose visits were arranged by the Kingsway staff, and brought Mom great comfort and companionship.
Her manner of dressing, as well as entertaining her guests with a sense of style was important to her. Our family benefited greatly from her energy, organizational abilities, her high standards, and above all, her capacity for love.
Family and friends are invited to the ST. MARYS UNITED CHURCH, 85 Church St. S. St. Marys, on Monday, March 31, 2025 for visitation from 1pm until the time of the Memorial Service at 2 pm. Gary Mallalieu officiating. Reception to follow in the church hall. Interment at a later date in Woodstock Anglican Cemetery.
Memorial donations may be made to the St. Marys Lions Club or the St. Marys United Church.
