It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our mom/granny Dorothy Bowman (nee Anderson) on June 12, 2023 at Stonewall Health Centre. It brings us comfort knowing that mom is with her Heavenly Father and is reunited with our dad/papa, whom we lost less than seven months ago.

Mom was born on October 15, 1948, in Dauphin River Manitoba, to Charles and Mary Anderson.

She leaves to mourn, her daughters Bonita (Joel) and Leanne (Tyler). Grandchildren, Tanner, Lucas, Danica and Jonah. Siblings, Beatrice, John (friend Willie), Alex James (Vivian), Joe (Rose), Sam (Eileen), Marilyn (Norman), Harold (Anne), Brian and her very special niece Shirley (Edward) who she thought as a sister.

Mom was predeceased by her husband Bill, parents Charles and Mary Anderson, in-laws Bert and Verlie Bowman, siblings Marina Letander, Ida Beardy, Walter Anderson and Priscilla Anderson. Sister in laws Elva Anderson, Dorothy Anderson, Rosanne Anderson and brother in law Daniel Beardy. Nephew Brent Anderson and long-life friend Edna Valen.

Funeral service will be held on Tuesday June 20, 2023, 2:00 p.m., at Gunton Hall in Gunton Manitoba.

Pallbearers will be Jordan Beardy, Andrew Halchuk, Ryan Anderson, Chris Anderson, Stewart Anderson, Lawrence Letander.

Condolences & Memories (5 entries)

  • Dear Bonnie and Leanne, we were so very sorry to hear about Aunt Dorothy's passing. Dorothy was the most loving and generous person and it always amazed us how she could pull things together on short notice to make everyone feel so welcome. She would absolutely shine when her grandchildren were around and you could see the love and respect in their eyes. Our memories of Dorothy always include the little kids sitting on her knee and hanging around her neck! She changed Uncle Bill's life and the two of them made a wonderful life together. We will miss Dorothy's wisdom, sense of humour, and laughter. With our deepest condolences and loving thoughts for you and your families, Bill and Susan Verran - Posted by: Bill and Susan Verran (Nephew) on: Jun 21, 2023

  • From the first moment I met Dorthy I felt that she was a special, loving human being. As I grew to know her my first impression was confirmed. Not only was she a wonderful host and baker, she went out of her way to cultivate my friendship. She always made me feel special and I have been richly blessed by knowing her. The world has lost a great spirit and I, for will will miss her. Lane Befus, Brian’s friend from Victoria, BC - Posted by: Lane Befus (Friend) on: Jun 19, 2023
