Len and family - I am so sorry to learn of Doreen's passing. I was speaking on Saturday about Treble Clef's trip to Ottawa and how great it was. We became known as the Sunshine Choir because of the bright yellow t-shirts we wore, and Doreen was the person who did all the arrangements to get them for us. That memory is held by many of us, and I know all your happy memories will help through this difficult time. Sincere condolences.
