JENKINS, Dorothy Vera  - 1920 – 2017  Vera passed away peacefully on October 29, 2017 at Credit Valley Hospital.

Beloved wife of the late Albert Jenkins (1997) and Jack Rymill (1944 POW).

Devoted mother to Garry (Patricia) and Jacqueline. Treasured grandmother to Kate (Dan) and Leah.

Over the past few years Vera became a "special" grandma to Faith, Jonathan, Jayda, Brody, Adam and Reaya; and her grand puppy Ginger. Born in Banbury, Oxfordshire, England, she immigrated to Canada in 1961 with Albert and her young family. Vera will be remembered for her principles of hard work, her strong will, and her sense of adventure.

"I would always try something once" she had been known to say. Her love of knitting and sewing generated hundreds of gifts of pneumonia vests and teddy bears for African children and many hats, scarves and baby clothes for others.

She will be missed by her friends at the North York Senior Centre, The Legion Branch 66, Erindale United Church and most of all by her family.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, November 18th at 2 p.m. at Erindale United Church, 1444 Dundas Cres., Mississauga (south off Dundas).
