Dorothy Jean Marks, born in Port Alberni, BC on January 5, 1945, passed away peacefully in her residence at Seymour Arm, BC on Monday, December 14, 2015 at the age of 70 years.

Dorothy will be lovingly remembered by her husband, Wilmer; children, Corrina (Kevin) Welch of Kingston, ON, Connie (Fred) Fernandes of Red Deer, AB, Kodie (Jodie) Nelson of Calgary, AB, Kelly (Mike) Knapp of Hanover, ON, Christy (George) Rajbar of Calgary, AB; stepchildren, Lorelie (Barry) Marks of Edmonton, AB, Randy (Faith) Marks of Calgary, AB and Nicole (Chris) Eckman of Tolfield, AB; 21 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren; and brother, Lloyd (Bernie) Pawlko of Tolfield, AB.
