Obituary for Dorothy Beatrice Waller
Dorothy Beatrice Waller nee (Bradbrook) - January 2, 1922- September 18, 2020. At the grand old age of 98 Dorothy passed from this world peacefully with family by her side, watching her beloved Blue Jays. Predeceased by her loving husband of 54 years Lawrence F. Waller, Dorothy leaves behind her adoring daughter Lorraine (Murray Lloyd), grandson Tristan Lloyd, and granddaughters Sydney and Devin Lloyd (Ryan Davis).
A cherished, blessed soul who loved a good laugh, she inspired joy with her dry wit and pranks. Dorothy emigrated from Yorkshire (“where the pudding comes from”), England with her husband in 1952 to start a new life in Toronto. After a few years they decided to put down roots in Newmarket and built an extensive network of friends and family working and socializing locally. Her passion for Bingo and scrabble was renowned and played a mean game right up until her passing. Special thanks to Dr. Bagiou of Southlake Regional Health Centre and his palliative team who made the transition so much easier.
Donations may be made in Dorothy’s name to a local charity of your choice if you wish. Visitations will be held at Roadhouse and Rose, Newmarket on Tuesday, September 29, 2020 from 6 pm - 8 pm and Wednesday, September 30, 2020 from 11 am - 1 pm with service to follow, a live stream will be available for those who cannot attend due to the COVID-19 restrictions.
