Obituary of Doreen Vivian Marchand
Doreen passed away like she approached many things in life. Quiet, slow and steady. She was a loving daughter, sister, mother, grandmother and friend. Those that knew her well, know that quiet and steady was only one aspect of Doreen. She was a hard worker, a gardener, an artist, a player and lover of music, a provider, a teacher, a chef, a baker, a fashionista, a keen competitor, a survivor, a crossword puzzle expert, a triple jump champion, tolerant, generous, loving and one hell of a great skater. She will be greatly missed and live on in all of our hearts.
