Doreen Anne Tiessen

Doreen Annie

March 21, 1930 – August 14, 2025

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Doreen Annie Tiessen, who peacefully departed on

August 14, 2025, at the age of 95.

Doreen was the heart and matriarch of her family, a woman whose love, guidance, and devotion shaped the lives of everyone around her. She was a beautiful presence whose family always came first.

She will be lovingly remembered by her children, Ken (Sandra), Dennis (Eileen), Brenda (Jim), and Brad (Suzanne); her sister Irene (Happy); and by her many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and

great-great-grandchildren.

Doreen was predeceased by her sons Ron and David, her daughter Sandra, her sister Mildred, and her brothers Norman and Henry.

Doreen had a gift for making everyone feel valued. Her kindness and compassion left a lasting imprint on all who knew her. She loved deeply and was deeply loved by her family. She found joy in her flower garden,

in laughter, and in the simple everyday moments. Some of the fondest memories were of time spent in her company, sharing stories and laughter over a comforting cup of sweet tea. A devoted fan of the Vancouver

Canucks, she never missed a game and cheered passionately for her team through every season.

She taught countless life lessons, led with strength and love, and created a legacy of care, resilience, and joy.

Doreen will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
