Dolly was one of the rare people who truly made a difference in my life. Her kind encouragement and guidance taught me the value of having more faith in oneself and to not be afraid to give things a try. I will always remember her cheerful smile and fun loving spirit. While I am saddened to see her go she lived a life to be proud of. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Juergen. Your friends – Cathy and Howie Attfield
My memories of Dolly will be all happy ones. Fun was the priority when we were all together for dinners and playing games. She was my original tennis buddy when we both ventured onto the courts for the first time in Nobleton and we played many great matches together. We hope that all the love that Dolly received from her friends will be a comfort to you at this very difficult time. Big hugs to you Juergen and to Dolly – Until we meet again. Love Mary & Dan
We are so sad to hear of the passing of Dolly. Her smiling face will be missed. Our deepest sympathy to Jeurgen and all of her family.
I was so saddened to read of Dolly’s passing. I first met Dolly at the Bridge table at Gallaghers. She was battling that insidious disease, Cancer, at the time but one would never have known, she never once let on how difficult her battle was. I now understand the statement “courageous battle” as Dolly epitomized that statement. Dolly was a joyful happy person to be around. I so enjoyed her company at the Bridge table and feel blessed that she was part of my life ever so brief that it was. With much love Chris Daniels
We are sorry to hear of Dolly’s passing. Our thoughts go out to Juergen and her family at this time of sadness.
I’ve known Dolly for over 30 years and we worked closely together in Ontario. She and Juergen were one of the main reasons we moved to Kelowna. Dolly was truly a great friend and we all had so much fun together. I will miss her great spirit and bright personality. She certainly was a fighter and inspiration to all.
Dolly, thank you for the wonderful memories! We love you and miss you. Our deepest sympathy goes out to Juergen and Dolly’s family. Love, Angie & Clyde
