On behalf of my entire family, I would like to offer sincere condolences to the entire Doherty family for the loss of Aunt Loretta. I have fond childhood memories of swimming in the pool at her and Uncle Clarence’s house between Port Albert and Dungannon. She was a gracious hostess, who always made any of her guests feel welcome. I wish courage and peace to the entire family during these difficult days. Please know that we keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Dan, Ioanna, Gabriel, Jacob, and Grace from Ottawa.
