She was the mother of five children – David Douglas (Nancy), Timothy Daniel (Catherine), William Andrew (Shelly), Elizabeth Ann Bacon (Thomas), and Dorothy Jean Dersch (Mark); the grandmother of 24 grandchildren; and the great grandmother of 34 great grandchildren. She is also survived by her sole niece, Carolyn Riches Annette (George) of Guelph, Ontario Canada.
