PINETTE, Dora (Dorli) July 26, 1935 - May 24, 2013 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dorli. She left us peacefully on May 24th, at home with her family. She leaves husband Conrad, daughter Christine, son Andrew, daughter-in-law Kimberlea, grandchildren Nicholas, Brennan, Chanelle and Gabrielle, an aunt and cousins in Switzerland and a cousin in New York. Dorli was born and raised in Basel, Switzerland, trained as a nurse in England and moved to Canada in 1962 to pursue her career as a Registered Nurse. She took a position at Cariboo Memorial Hospital in Williams Lake in 1963, met Conrad and they were married in Basel, Switzerland in December 1965. They then established their home in Williams Lake, raised their family there and subsequently moved to Vancouver in 1986. The family wants to thank the staff from Pacific Spirit Community Health Centre for their attention and support, Louise Hoggard (Kimberlea's mother) for her care and assistance during the last few weeks of her life and Dr. Lee McGillivray from Copeman Healthcare Centre, for her help, guidance and support. Contributions to BC Cancer Agency or BC Children's Hospital in memory of Dorli can be considered. A Celebration of Life will be held in Kelowna in July, 2013. Kearney Funeral Services 604-736-0268
