Dorothy Anne Foster

Dorothy [Anne] Foster, 88, of Nanaimo and Lantzville, BC passed away on January 7th after a sudden decline in her health.

Anne Foster was born Dorothy Anne Sherratt in Cheadle, Cheshire, England to Charles Sherratt and Dorothy Burgess. She married George Earl Foster (deceased) October 24th, 1954, and had three children, Darlene (deceased), Christine and Stephen. She is survived by her sisters Edith Wheatcroft and Linda Wilson (Helen Sherratt previously deceased) as well as her loving grandchildren Brandon, Jennifer and Laura, and great grandchildren James, Jonathan and Jenelle.

She was a loving mother and wife with a huge heart full of love and generosity. She had passion for her spirituality and cared deeply for her friends. Anne was very talented and loved to paint and craft and spent many hours making beautiful things for family and friends. Anne and George had a loving and full life together. They enjoyed camping and the beach throughout their lives spending many summers on the water taking in the mountain and sea views at their beloved campsite on Big Qualicum or at the old family home at the bottom of Benwaldun Rd. in Lantzville, which was always a hub for family activity.

Anne will be missed by many but will live on in all our memories.
