PAULINE DUNN

PAULINE REBECCA (BECKY) DUNN Becky passed away peacefully at the Delta Hospital on May 9, 2001 in her 88th year. Loving wife of 63 years to Duncan and dear Mum to Carole (Bob) Baturin and Bill (Marlene). She was so special to her grandchildren, Jeff Baturin, Karen (John) Doricic, Greg (Anita) Baturin and Kylie Dunn and much loved Nanny to Sara, Amy and Matthew Doricic and Devan and Ryan Baturin. She is also survived by her sister, Nancy Walker; brother, Tom (Win) Brough; and sisters-in-law Jean Simmons, Lil Vesey and Betty Hunt; many cousins nieces and nephews and dear friends. Becky was an avid golfer and bowler in her earlier years. She and Duke worked together in their store, Dunns Meats & Groceries, for many years. After retirement, they made many wonderful trips and enjoyed the winters in the south and the summers at Grand Beach. They moved to Tsawwassen, B.C. in 1995 to be near their children. Throughout her life Becky loved her family and all the special celebrations she had with them. All her family and friends loved Christmas Eve at the Dunns. Mum will always be loved and missed by all. A Memorial Service will be held on Thursday, May 17 at 12:00 noon at the Delta Funeral Home on Ladner Trunk Road. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the Delta Hospital Foundation, 5880 Mountainview Blvd., Delta, BC V4K 3V6, would be appreciated. Many thanks to Dr. Magnuson and the staff at the Delta Hospital for their loving care of Mum. DELTA FUNERAL HOME 604-946-6040

This is the same ER MC posted earlier. Duncan is a Butcher.

Same address in 1953, 1957, 1962 but they are the sole residents
Ditto in 1965, although Duncan is Self employed

Pauline seems to swap between that an Rebecca!

As Winnifred (Hatheway) Brough only died last year, the Funeral Directors may still have up to date contact details. If you were interested in getting in contact with Tommy's descendents, it might be worth emailing them. They may be willing to pass on a message, but not give out their client's details.

The same could apply to the other funeral directors mentioned on other recent Notices.

Hi MarieCeleste

Tom Wife Winnie

Is Tom the brother to Ernest Brough just so I get it correct in my tree

Thanks

Edit - no I think I have written that wrong

No, he's Ernest and Beatrice's son.

The transcription for the 1921 census has him mis-recorded as "Wm" which you've picked up as William. The image does actually show his name as Tom.

Thank you for the confirmation. I had to pop out but i am back now and made necessary alterations to my info. thanks
