Doreen Ruth Daudelin

Beloved wife of the late André "Andy" Willie Daudelin (2022), her soulmate of 65 years, Doreen was also the loving daughter of the late George and Pearl Schneider. She was a devoted and proud mother to Joyce Agnew (Blake), Tim Daudelin (Susan), Susan Daudelin (the late Gary Johnstone), and Carol Urban (John Weller). Her legacy continues through her cherished grandchildren: Brandon Agnew (Jess Panetta), Tanya Bogoslowski (Jason), Sherry Inman (Michael), Rachel Agnew (Pat), Dani Jones (Brendon Larkin), Kelsey Daudelin, and Jessi Jones. Doreen's joy extended to her great-grandchildren: Austin, Sawyer, Cayla, and Brooke, whom she adored deeply. She is preceded by her in-laws, Archibald and Yvonne Daudelin. She was a beloved sister and sister-in-law to Mary Belzner (the late George), Lawrence Schneider (the late Joyce & the late Kay), the late Louis and Shirley Schneider, the late Norm and Gladys Schneider, Albert Daudelin (the late Sharron), Réal Daudelin (Jean), Patricia Surrette (the late Jim), Mary Daudelin (the late Leo Daudelin), the late Roland and Mary Daudelin, the late Rita and Ben Shute, the late Patrick Daudelin, and the late Yvette Blais (Raymond). Doreen will be forever remembered by many nieces, nephews, extended family, friends and neighbours.

Doreen cherished her family above all else- taking care of her loved ones brought her immense joy. She was an excellent cook with a special talent for making and sharing delicious preserves, homemade jams, jellies, pies and world famous dill pickles. Creative and resourceful, she often knitted and crocheted little keepsakes for her family from Easter gifts to dishcloths made with love. Doreen was a welcoming grandmother who freely shared her wisdom and warmth. Together with Andy, Doreen was the epitome of kindness and generosity. Their love and devotion to one another were steadfast, and now, they are reunited.

The family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to the compassionate and caring staff at the Meadows of Dorchester, especially in the Villa wing for their exceptional care.
