Doris Eileen Bell (nee Bowell)

October 22, 2014

Sadly we announce the passing of our beloved mother and Grandmother, Doris Eileen Bell at the age of 93.

Doris was born in Sapperton (New Westminster, B.C.), daughter of George and Irene Bowell. In 1946 Doris and David were married and together they raised two daughters, Janet (Geldart) and Linda (Navratil). Widowed at age 60, Doris continued to reside at the family home in Burnaby until June of 1990 when she decided to move to Salmon Arm.

Doris lived a full life, enjoying cruises and vacations with family and friends. Her home and garden provided her much pleasure.

Health concerns required changes in Doris’s life and her final days were lived at Piccadilly Park Place. She never lost her sharp mind and challenged her friend Laura with poetry excerpts.

Doris is lovingly remembered by her daughters Janet (Monti), and Linda (Peter), grandsons Peter (Kim), Jeff (Heather), and Curtis Hoy, 3 great grandchildren Ernie, Oliver and Lauren.

Interment at Valley View Cemetery.
