Dorothy Jane Munro (Melvin) Purvis passed away peacefully at Lakeland Long Term Care on Monday, February 24th, 2025 at the age of 98.
Dorothy was predeceased by her loving husband, Robert “Bob”, son Robert “Douglas” and brother John Melvin. She is survived by her son David, daughter Debra Lawson (Victor), granddaughter Lindsay Loft (Andrew), great grandson Wesley, brother Douglas Melvin and sister Ruth Beamish (Sam).
Dorothy enjoyed many years working for Easter Seals in Toronto. This was followed by a long and happy retirement in Bobcaygeon, Rockwood, Guelph and Barrie, finally settling in Parry Sound in her later years. She made many friends along the way, enjoyed dancing, a good game of cards and had a great love of music. Most importantly though, Dorothy was devoted to her family and she will be sorely missed by all.
Interment will occur in the spring/summer of 2025, at which time a private celebration of life will take place.
As expressions of sympathy, donations to The Canadian Diabetes Association (Diabetes Canada) in Dorothy’s name would be appreciated.
