Funeral Details: Private Family Arrangements

In fond memory of Dorothy who passed away on July 21, 2024 at the age of 86 years.  Loving daughter of the late Eric and Rose Shaw.  Dorothy is survived by her husband Albert Levi Mitchell whom she married in February 1958.  Lovingly remembered by her four children Alan, Michael, Sandra, and Tina, and by her one grandchild, Stephanie Mitchell.

Dorothy, known as Dolly to her family, was born August 21, 1937 in Guildford, Surrey, UK.  She was very close with her parents and continued to correspond by letters with her father for more than 25 years after moving to Canada.   In her younger years she was kept busy with her young family and worked with her husband in the family business.  More recently, Dorothy could be found most days tending to her flower garden and feeding the local birds and squirrels at their long-time home in Muskoka.  Her warm smile could light up a room, and she welcomed everyone into her home with open arms.  Dorothy always enjoyed puzzles, music and dancing, and in recent years, became a fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

In keeping with her wishes, a private cremation has taken place.  Online memories and can be shared at www.peacefultransition.ca

She will be missed by all that knew her.
