McLaren, Dorothy May
Oct. 28, 1920 – Sept. 15, 2013
It is with saddened hearts we announce the passing of our mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and auntie.
Dorothy was born in Girvin on Oct. 28, 1920 to Dave and Euphemia Low. She was raised and got her schooling in the Girvin District.
She married Peter Alexander McLaren on July 25, 1944. They lived in the Girvin area where they farmed and raised their five children until 1985 when they moved to the Craik manor.
Dorothy was predeceased by her husband Peter on July 23, 1993. She continued to live in Craik for awhile then moved to Davidson.
Dorothy was also predeceased by her son Jim in June, 2009. She leaves to mourn her children, son Larry of Girvin, daughters Betty of Davidson, Donna (Gerry) of Coronach, son Doug (Cindy) of Davidson and daughter-in-law Sharon of Bladworth. She also leaves 12 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews and many friends.
Dorothy loved sports like curling, playing ball and later golf. She enjoyed music, reading, jigsaw puzzles and crosswords. Her favourite thing to do was going out for coffee with family and friends – they also came first in her life. Mom, until we meet again, we love and miss you forever. Your loving family.
