Obituary for Dorothy Marie Smith (Canning)
It's with great sadness to announce the passing of Dorothy Smith, 76 of Calgary. She was the only daughter of the late Ralph and Marion (Lockhart) Canning.
Dorothy enjoyed life to the fullest, even when she wasn't feeling well. She was a fighter to the end. She worked many years at All Saints Hospital. She made a big change later in life and moved to Calgary. She then finished her working years at the Peter Lougheed Hospital. Everywhere she went she made friends. Her greatest joy was her only granddaughter, Hayley. She was so happy to be able to watch her grow up and spend so many special times with her.
Dorothy will be sadly missed by son Ricky of Prince George, BC; daughter Sandi Potter (Steven) of Calgary; brothers Jack (Cheryl) of Amherst; Brian (Carolyn) of Collingwood and sister in law Eileen of Southampton and several nieces and nephews.
Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her brothers Doug and Carl.
