Doreen Poirier

August 20, 2020

September 10, 1929 - August 20, 2020
Passed away peacefully at the age of 90 in her home with family by her side. Predeceased by her sister Nancy, and survived by her husband of 68 years, Richard (Dick); her sister Joan; her kids Rick (Laurie), Barry (Sheryl), and Margaret (Brian); grandchildren 'Little Grey Hares': Garett, Kyle (Sam), Caleb, Stacey (Blake), Colin, Willie (Domonique), and Becky; great-grandchildren Kallen, Sage, Adrianna, Miyah, Willow, and Zilvia. Gran leaves great and happy memories with her entire family.
Doreen lived most of her life in the West Coast community of Jordan River. She touched many people's lives on THE HILLTOP. She will be remembered for her joyous loud laugh, especially when she laughed with her daughter, Margaret. She loved travelling, fishing, and visiting her family with Dick.
She and her sister Joan participated in the Sooke Craft Fair for many years. They had fun and great stories to share. During her quiet times she sewed, knit, and enjoyed a good book. Mom was always there when anyone needed a helping hand, a little advice, or just some information. Her memory never failed her. She will be greatly missed by family and friends.
Her pain is gone. May she rest in peace with the powers that be.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the BCSPCA or BC Cancer Society.
