April 9, 1922 ~ March 27, 2019
It
is with profound sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved
mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt and friend, Ruth Dobbin, on
Wednesday, March 27, 2019.
Ruth
was born in Old Pinawa, April 9, 1922, where she lived until she married Everett
Dobbin in 1942. In 1963 they were one of the pioneer families who moved to
“New” Pinawa where she lived a full and happy life and was fortunate to spend
most of her 97 years in the place she loved the most……Pinawa. Always
active, enjoying her bridge groups, oil painting in the early years and busy
outdoors gardening, golfing, fishing, curling and involvement in numerous
volunteer groups.
Ruth
was predeceased by her husband Everett in 2011 and is lovingly remembered by
her daughter Maureen (Garth), son Bruce, granddaughter Laura (Kevin), grandsons
Robert & Jude (Rachel), great-granddaughters, Emma, Alison & Haley, and
great-grandsons Ronan & Caden.
Many
heartfelt thanks to the Ironwood Supportive Housing staff and the doctors and
nursing staff at the Pinawa Hospital. Special thanks to Lorne and Paulette
Schram and Rita Bell for being such special and caring friends and always being
there when needed.
Funeral
services and reception will be held on Friday, April 5 at 2 pm at the Pinawa
Alliance Church, 1 Bessborough Ave (at Burrows Rd), Pinawa.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Pinawa Foundation at endowmanitoba.ca or P.O. Box 100, Pinawa, MB. R0E 1L0.
