It is with great sadness that the family of Dorothy Schnitzler announce her sudden passing at Thunder Bay Regional Hospital on Thursday, June 27, 2002 following a brief illness. Born in 1913 in Berlin (Kitchener), Ontario she was the first born of Albert and Maria Tracey. In 1940 she married Louis Arthur Schnitzler and together they spent most of their lives in Waterloo working hard and raising their family of whom they were so very proud. Dorothy and Art moved to Thunder Bay in 1993 and resided at Jasper Place where a wonderful group of people helped them to live an independent life. They enjoyed immensely their annual trips each summer when they returned to the Sarnia and K-W areas to visit family and friends.Mom will be missed by her loving children, son Peter (Kathy) of Corunna, Patricia Turcotte (Richard) of Thunder Bay; grandchildren, Jennifer Turcotte, Kristopher Turcotte (fiancee Jennifer Bell) of Thunder Bay, Craig Lawrence (Wendy) of Sarnia, Kelly Conkey (Dave) of Corunna, Caralee Ridley (Adam) of Sarnia, eight great-grandchildren, sisters-in-law Helen Tracey, and Jennie Tracey. Many nieces and nephews also survive.
