Peacefully, with her family by her side, at Lapointe Fisher Nursing Home,

Guelph, on Thursday, May 23, 2019. Doris Joan (Dunn) Legault, in her

81st year, was the beloved wife of the late Martin Legault (2008). She

was the loving mother of Christine Legault, Donna and her husband Robin

Eby, Sharon Legault and her partner Paul Fitchett, James Legault and his

partner Cindy Hiscock all of Guelph. Doris was the proud Nana of Lisa

(Norm Fish), Amanda (Keith Moreau), and Melissa (Warren Hutton), and

special G.G. of Cody and Kaitlyn Fish. Survived John and Nat Legault, Rick

Legault, Maurice Legault and by many nieces and nephews in the Dunn and

Doris was born on August 6, 1938. She was the youngest to the late James

immediate family and the only one to reach the age of eighty. She is

Beatrice, Viola, and Theresa, her mother and father-in-law Philip and

job at Bell Canada. She was at dinner one day with a friend when Martin

Legault walked in. She turned to her friend and said there’s the man I

will marry. They were married on February 16, 1957 and remained so until

are at peace.
