Lillian S. O'Doherty(nee Roberts) It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Lillian O'Doherty, at St. Michael's Hospital, on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, in her 92nd year. Wife of the late C. Frank O'Doherty, and beloved mother of Frank (Shirley) and Ellen (Gray Douglas). Cherished grandmother to Francis, Kimberley and Patrick O'Doherty and Jillian Douglas. Lillian was the last surviving relative of a serving soldier of the Northwest Rebellion at Batoche (10th Grenadiers). Although she grew up in Toronto, Lillian was happiest when spending time with family and friends at her beautiful lake front home on Lake Simcoe, which she designed and built. The family will receive friends at the HUMPHREY FUNERAL HOME - A.W. MILES CHAPEL, 1403 Bayview Avenue (south of Davisville Avenue) from 6:00 - 9:00 p.m. Friday, November 20. A private service will be held. If desired, donations in Lillian's memory to the Heart & Stroke Foundation of Ontario, 2300 Yonge Street, Suite #1300, P.O. Box #2414, Toronto M4P 1E4 would be appreciated. Condolences and memories may be forwarded through www.humphreymiles.com.
