Dear Paul, Margo, Eric, and all family and friends of our aunt Dottie,
Herewith we send our sincere condolences with the loss of your mother and grand(grand)mother Dottie.
Although we never were able to meet her in person, we felt close to Dottie and Claessen family members, because you kept in touch with us Claessen relatives in the Netherlands, using internet.
In this way we could share some of the life of Dottie, including the very emotional last couple of months.
We are saddened for this loss, and the thought we will not see or hear her happyness and smile anymore.
I still recall the phone calls my mother Truus had with your father Piet, and after he deceased, also once with Dottie, where I was the interpreter. She was so happy to hear us, despite the language barrier.
Over the last years, we could enjoy Dottie’s activities on internet and learn from her love for Canada and its beautiful nature. Sometimes we shared family and holiday pictures, which you showed to her and which she enjoyed very much.
In all contacts we had over time, her happy and warm personality was present, and we will remember her like that.
Jack and José.

Dear Paul & Margo, and Eric, dear family and friends of Dotty,
Our sincere condolences with the loss of your mother & grandmother Dotty.
I never had the pleasure of meeting her, but heard many stories from uncle Peter and my relatives who made the oversea journey from The Netherlands to Canada. I missed out on that opportunity since I was moving in the other direction, towards Asia, where I now again am based, this time in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
My cousin Truus Daelemans was so kind to inform me about aunt Dotty's passing.
I, Hilde Janssen, am the daughter of Peter's sister Annie who was married to Chrètien Janssen. My brother Mart and his wife Yvonne visited you all in Canada years ago. I still recall the excitement we all felt when uncle Peter came to visit us in The Netherlands, listening to the stories of a land far away, where he felt so at home, and enjoyed the company of his wive, family and friends. A pity aunt Dotty never was able to join him on his journeys to The Netherlands. Nice to read that she started traveling around the world later on, once she discovered the internet. I will cherish the memories.
Wishing you all the best.
Warm regards,
Hilde Janssen

Dorothy will be greatly missed, I always looked forward to her infectious smile and amazing stories. We would always share some special moments when she would always ask to see pictures of my golden retriever Maggie Mae. I am so glad she finally got to meet Maggie. I will never forget her generosity during my stay in the hospital. She was great company when she came for a visit. Her kindness and her beautiful smile and personality will never ever be forgotten. Rest easy sweet Dorothy ❤️
