  8. Heartfelt condolences to Charlie, Wayne, Debbie, David, Tracey, Dean and their families. Dorothy was truly an inspirational lady, there seemed to be nothing she couldn’t take in her stride and a smile that meant more than any words could say. As a nineteen year old she cared for us, her four cousins, due to medical issues with our mother, Ida Rankin. Dorothy took to the task like a duck to water, so competent she was, she left a lasting impression to those who had the honour of witnessing her motherly skills. Dorothy is now resting peacefully but will never be forgotten by those who knew her. Thank you Tracey for the care and devotion you gave to Dorothy over the years.

    You were 1 of the 3 ‘big people’ in my life throughout my childhood alongside Poppa and Mum.
    I’ve always loved making you laugh and you were so fun.
