cousins.

Doreen, always a hard worker, had many jobs in her lifetime, but being a cook was what she enjoyed the most!

We will be remembering Doreen privately.

If you would like to remember Doreen, a donation to Chatham Kent Hospice Foundation in her memory would be greatly appreciated by those who loved her.

Always in our memories…..Forever in our hearts.
