MILTON, Dorothy (Dodie) Margaret (nee WELLS) was born in Victoria, BC on December 7, 1936 and passed away on January 17, 2021 at Sidney Care Home in Sidney, BC after a lengthy battle with Dementia. Dodie lived in Victoria, Nova Scotia, Sooke, Sidney and a few summers at the Quarantine Station (now William Head Institution) where her father was stationed.
Predeceased by her parents, Capt. Jack and Muriel Wells (nee Church), 2nd husband Lloyd, stepson Tom, stepson-in-law Glen, siblings Muriel, Evie, and Jim.

Dodie loved to work and started her working life at Naden before going to work for the Provincial Government where she spent the majority of her career. She embraced life and never turned down an opportunity to join a social committee. Over the years, Dodie was an active member of the Victoria Operatic Society and the Victoria Horseshoe Club. She loved dancing, music, theatre, camping, carpet bowling and their annual fishing derby. Known for her themed birthday parties, she enjoyed entertaining family and friends with magicians and ventriloquists. Dodie treasured time with family, friends, beloved pets and her grandchildren who lovingly called her Nana. She will be greatly missed.
For almost 3 years, Dodie was a resident of Sidney Care Home where she entertained the staff and residents with her sense of humor. The family is grateful for the love and care offered by the staff and management of Sidney Care Home.
