Mom was born in Teulon, MB, and is survived by her three sons John of Winnipeg, Ronald (Rosemarie) of Calgary and Arden (Alison) of Saskatoon; grandchildren Kathryn (Kevin), Jeffrey (Sarah), Andrew, Lindsay (Jonathan), Kyle; great-grandchildren, Claire and James; brother Albert; as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Dorothy was predeceased by her loving husband Elywn, her parents Albert and Lillian Frost, and her sister Elsie Frank. Dad and Mom were married in 1946, and built their home in 1948, where our Mom lived until 2011. Mom and Dad built their cottage at Locke Bay, ON, in the early 1960s where the family spent many summer days enjoying Mom's tremendous cooking and fresh blueberry pie. Mom was an avid reader and bridge player who was ahead of her time as a nature lover. She moved to Kildonan House in the fall of 2011, where she maintained her positive outlook, her sense of humour and her independence. Thank you to the staff at Kildonan House for the wonderful care and support you provided our mom and a special thanks to Concordia Hospital for making her final days as comfortable as possible. Funeral services will be held on Sunday, March 3, 2013, at 1:00 p.m. at St. Stephen's Anglican Church, 220 Helmsdale Ave, Winnipeg, MB with internment to follow at Windsor Cemetery Teulon MB.

Our deepest sympathies for your loss, dear Buskells - your Mom was such a wonderful lady, Arden! She always had a sincere smile on her face and then there was that little twinkle in her eye that made one feel that she was sharing something special with you. Rheal and I will remember her sweet demeanor and kind and generous heart. Our love and prayers are with you as always... - Posted by: Leah Dupuis (Extended family) on: Mar 05, 2013
