  3. Dear Chrissie & Paul, Paul & Val, Dave & Donna, Anne & Bernie & all the grandies. She was a gem to be treasured when in her prime. I loved hearing of the stories of her tennis days (& watching her cringe at what was acceptable then but not now, when you pointed out loading you all up in the car & driving you home after a celebratory cheer or 3). She was always so warm & welcoming to me with or without Chrissie by my side💗. She will be dearly missed by you all but now she gets to live a great life again, remembering all her loves (you lot were her world), as she gets welcomed again by her greatest love who has been patiently waiting to envelope her into his big arms🥰 love & hugs to you all. From Di, Scotty & the Chandler & Derham family xx

  9. Deepest sympathy to Dot’s family. A long time part of “The Crinigan road mob”, Dot had a sense of adventure, a happy, friendly, kind and mischievous disposition. She adored her family and travelled far and wide to keep in contact with them. She has left her mark in our memories and hearts and will be greatly missed. RIP 🙏 Pam Shaw and family.

  10. Our love and thoughts are with all the family with the passing of their beautiful mum & nana. Dot was a very special member of the Sacred Heart Tennis Club for many years. Her antics & laughter on the court were always cause for merriment with onlookers. All social occasions, after matches drinks & especially Christmas break ups often ended with Dot & Bernie & the children, being one of the last family to head home! Dot & Bernie also enjoyed travelling on some of the Ray Linton tours with many of their friends & many new friends also made. Dot you had such a gentle nature, a gorgeous smile & concern for all. May you rest peacefully with your wonderful husband Bernie. Our thoughts are also with Dots special friends Wendy & Pete. Lots of Love

  12. Dot was a great lady always smiling and positive. The early St Vinnies days were wonderful. We had lots of fun on our school and parish spiritual retreats. Dot and Bernie were very supportive parishioners and often the voice of reason. Their faith was always evident and always practical. Rest in peace Dot, a life well lived.
