Death*

Doreen Mable Anderson died on 4 August 2024 in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, Canada, at age 89;

Doreen Mabel Hewson (nee Anderson), born January 3, 1935 at Victoria, BC, died August 4,
2024 at Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta.

Predeceased by her beloved husband, Samuel; parents, Mabel, William, and stepmother,
Mary; siblings, William, Allan, Wilfred, Donald, Ronald, Arthur, and Muriel; and
granddaughter-in-law, Camielle Adams.

Doreen was a gentle, caring, compassionate woman who always smiled and never complained
about life. Doreen filled her life with family, friends, and laughter. Her warm, loving demeanor
will be greatly missed.

Life wasn’t always easy for Doreen; one of twelve children, her mother died when she was 13. At 15,
she became the household manager and full-time caregiver for her younger siblings. This is when
she learned to make every penny count, something she used throughout her married life.

As a teenager, she loved to dance. She belonged to the “Let’s Dance Club” in Victoria and was
involved in competition and exhibition dancing. She often went dancing with her father, which is
where she met her future husband, Sam.

Her skilled fingers kept her sister, Joyce, and herself in clothing. Later, she used these skills for her
daughter and grandchildren. From sewing clothes and home fashions, she evolved to quilting
and machine embroidery. Many of the items she made will be treasured for years to come.

Doreen will be sorely missed by her loving children, Samuel (Joyce), Stephen (Karen) and
Kathryn (Adam); her nine grandchildren, Samuel Douglas, Craig (Alyson), Kimberly
(Graham), Janelle (Brian), Scott, Jessica (Brock), Kyle, Amanda (Andrew) and Savannah
(Takuma); and her six
great-grandchildren, Emily, Kyla, Madison, William, Greyson, and Harmony. Doreen is also
survived by her sister, Joyce (Gabe), and brothers, Robert (Linda), Maurice, and Gord
(Karen).
