Dorothy Elizabeth Ina Bown (Stevenson)

1924 - 2025

Dorothy Elizabeth Ina Bown (Stevenson) passed away peacefully on January 29th, 2025, in her 101st year.  

Predeceased by her husband, Gordon Edward Bown. She was the very loving and cherished mother of her son, Gordon Steven Roy Bown (Linda), and daughter, Pamela Margaret. She also leaves her brother-in-law, Ronald Husk, her several nephews and their families and many cherished friends.  

Predeceased by her loving parents, Margaret Smith and Newton G. Stevenson and her siblings Theodore (Nancy), Garfield (killed in Holland in 1944), and Marjorie (Ronald).  

Our family would like to extend a special message of love, thanks and appreciation to Patricia Stevenson Smith, Mom’s youngest and dearest cousin, for her caring support to Mom and our family over many years.  

We are also very thankful for Susan and Les Nutbrown and Mary Drew, who have been so very kind, caring and helpful to Mom over the past years.  

A very special thank you to Sandra Klinck and ALL the wonderful and caring nurses, caregivers, staff and volunteers at Grace Village and The Renaissance Manoir St-Francis for their love, compassion, care and kindness throughout Mom’s last years. 

Mom was a very proud Sherbrooke Hospital nursing graduate (Class of 1945) and loved her nursing profession and her many nursing friends and Sherbrooke Hospital alumni.  

Above all else, Mom loved her family and friends and would do anything for them. 

She adored her flower gardens, feeding and watching the birds, and playing a good game of Bridge!  

Graveside prayers will follow at a later date. 

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Grace Village Foundation, Dr. Klinck Fund https://gracevillage.ca/dr-klinck-fund   or to the charity of your choice.

My sympathies to the entire family. I worked in the kitchen and now as an LPN at Grace Village.. Dorothy was a sweet soul. She always asked how I was doing and would tell me I was doing a good job, that she was glad to see me. Her smile could light up a room. She will be deeply missed. Rest in peace, my dear Dorothy.

Our deepest sympathies Pam. We wish you peace and comfort during this difficult time. There is no love in this world that compares to the love we have for our mother.

Dear Pam, Gordie and all the family. My dear friend Dot, first met when I was very young, like 60 plus years ago. We visited Dot over the years, and will always remember her beautiful smile, and gentle manner. A bridge game in earlier years, was always in order any time. Sad to say, haven't been able to visit Quebec the last few years, when we would visit her at Grace and when we always had a good "chin wag." A beautiful soul and proud to say, Dot was my friend for many years. Loved her like family. Rest easy Dot. Your friend Eleanor

Dearest Pam and family! I had the pleasure of meeting your Mom and recognizing the human that she was! Always cheerful. kind, caring and grateful! I know how much she inspired you and felt how proud she was of who you were Pam, it was important for her to know how well surrounded you were in Valcartier :) this made her very happy. I know that you will remember her and smile because she left you with so many perfect memories. She left you with a full heart and eyes to see how much her life meant to you and those who loved her. Cherish her memory by living the life that she wanted you to have! Sending you hugs, comfort and love. From the other Pam ;) xox
