Dorothy was born and raised in Green Bay, MB.  On November 25, 1952 she married Roy Sackvie and they spent 48 wonderful years together until Roy’s passing in 1999.

She was a homemaker, took in borders and later she babysat starting in 1963 into the mid 1980’s.  Her and Roy enjoyed as much time as they could at their cabin in Nutimik Lake.  Dorothy enjoyed fishing, card playing, working on jigsaw puzzles, knitting, crocheting among other crafts, and tending her garden and flowers.

But most of all, she loved spending time with family and friends.

Rest Easy Mom, you’ve earned it with how hard you work here on earth.  Although we are sad, we also rejoice and take comfort in knowing you are free from earthly sufferings.  We love you, say hi to Dad!

Many thanks to Helen and all the staff at East Gate Lodge for all the care and compassion they showed our mother.
