Obituary For Doreen Anne Camplair Pfau
Doreen Anne Pfau, resident of Dimsdale, AB, formerly of Grande Prairie, AB, passed away on Sunday, October 18, 2020, at the Grande Prairie Care Centre, at the age of 81 years.
Doreen was born on February 4, 1939, in Beaverlodge, AB. She met her sweetheart, Harold Pfau, and they were married on November 9, 1955. They had three children: Diane, Gordon, and Jerry. Doreen worked at Pat’s Auto, Montrose School, Avondale School, as well as on the farm. She and Harold settled in Dimsdale, where she took on most of the farming duties. There wasn’t a piece of machinery she couldn’t run.
Doreen was a hard-working and compassionate lady. A loving mother and grandmother, she loved her grandchildren and looked forward to every minute she could spend with them. She liked to dance, listen to her music, play hockey with the kids, motorbike, and curl.
She will be sadly missed by her daughter Diane (Gene) Kimble; grandson Dallas (Shauna); and great-grandchildren Morgyn and Ashtyn; grandson Darren (Carisa); and great-grandchildren: Jordyn, Shayla, Jenna and Taylor; grandson Devin (Carol); and great-grandchildren Colby and Sawyer; son Gordon (Theresa) Pfau; grandson Craig (Heidi); and great-grandchild Sage; granddaughter Kimberly (Ed) MacLean; and great-grandchildren Quinn and Kelty; son Jerry (Kim) Pfau; and grandson Myles (Alissa); and great-grandchild Myah; grandson Jesse; and grandson Shane.
Doreen was predeceased by her sisters: Jean, Jeannette, and Ellen; brothers Herb and Harry; father Curt, and mother Mary; as well as her beloved husband Harold.
