Dorothy was an enthusiastic participant in baseball, hockey and paddling in her youth in Winnipeg. She always enjoyed her yard and garden and spent much time puttering around the flowers.

Dorothy was an avid traveller with her husband, travelling the world as well as enjoying ocean cruises and canal barges in Europe.

She was active socially at the Royal Glenora Club for many years. As well, Dorothy gave freely of her time as a volunteer for a number of organizations.
