CORBETT, Doreen Marie

December 21, 1937 - January 14, 2015

It is with heavy hearts that we must announce the death of Doreen Marie Corbett age 77, of White Rock, BC. Doreen, eldest daughter of Wilfred Roy Corbett and Lillian From, passed away at Morgan Place Care Facility on January 14, 2015. Her loving daughter, Tracey and son Trevor, were present during her peaceful departure. She is survived by her sister, Betty Ann Sylvester, three children, Jacqueline Laurel Leah Dumbrille, Angela Tracey Lynne McDonald and Michael Trevor Grant Maydaniuk along with her grandson, Christopher James Maydaniuk. She was predeceased by her husband of 35 years, Michael Maydaniuk. Born in Winnipeg, Manitoba she had a strong and imaginative nature. She loved all facets of the creative arts: music, dance, painting, fashion design and photography were some of her greatest passions. Doreen herself was an accomplished photographer and member of the Delta Arts Council as well as a talented dress designer and seamstress. She had an adventurous spirit and was fortunate enough to live and travel extensively throughout Europe as a result of her husband's posting in the Canadian Embassy. She taught us how to appreciate the finer things in life and to be strong in the face of adversity. Her spirit will be greatly missed.
