I would like to send Condolences to my Uncle Howard and cousins, Roger, Terry and Janice. Aunty Dorraine was always very nice to me when I came back to Drayton Valley from Australia. My father Carl had passed away when I was 4 months old and Uncle Howard and Aunty Dorraine had always treated me as one on their own. A strange set of twins with Terry being a few months older than I am. She can now go say hi to my dad.
We will all miss her greatly.

Allan has known Dorraine Hines Ganske since he was a child. Her parents and Allans spent many evenings with the gas lantern for light, playing cards. Allan first met Howard before he was engaged to Dorraine, the love of his life. Dorraine’s parents, Aime and Margaret, and her sister Gloria attended our wedding 55years ago in Aldergrove, BC.
It was a treat to spend time with the Hines family when they had a reunion in Kinuso. Allan’s Mom, Sennie, received a birthday cake at one of these occasions made by Dorraine’s sister, Sylvia. Sylvia was a prankster and was know to play tricks on others. Sennies cake was a sponge cake, beautifully decorated. However she was unable to cut it as it was made from a big piece of sponge. It was at this reunion that we met Baby Spencer for the first time. Such a good memory.
When we moved to Drayton Valley it was so nice to reconnect with Howard and Dorraine. Often we were with them at the Legion for refreshments and meat draws. We became friends with many of theirs. After we retired, it became a ritual to go for supper with them and other neighbors every few weeks.
Such a long friendship will always be treasured. We will always miss Dorraine’s hearty laugh and her love for having a good time with family and friends. She will be remembered fondly by everyone who knew her. ❤️❤️

Q: How did you meet Doraine?
A: Doraine was our next door neighbour when we moved back to Drayton. Always smiling and sharing laughs with Howard. We will miss her dearly and have many fond memories of summer days in the back yard, sharing a beer and a laugh. Hugs to Howard and all the kids as you remember this beautiful soul. We will miss you! Sorry we won’t be able to attend the service but know we are thinking of you all. Hugs and love Deb and Bill
