It is with great sadness we announce the death of Dorothy Jean Cowen. Surrounded by her family, at Jessica’s House, Exeter, on July 6, 2019, at the age of 85. Dorothy was the daughter of the late Ted and Jean (Francis) Pooley.

Dorothy will be missed by many nieces, nephews, extended family, shared grandchildren, and many wonderful friends, all of whom she loved dearly. Her family and friends meant everything to her. The family wishes to thank Dr. Patel, the staff of South Huron Hospital, Dr. Lam, and the staff and volunteers of Jessica’s House for the kindness, compassion, and comfort shown to Dorothy and her family during the last weeks of her life.

Sending you our deepest sympathies to Kevin, all the Cowen’s and Pooley family. Aunt Dorothy was very special to all of us. She was thoughtful, kind, caring and selfless. Whenever we were in town and were able to visit, she always welcomed us with open arms and big hugs. She was always keen to hear updates on the kids and how we were all doing. Aunt Dorothy was great at keeping in touch, we looked forward to hearing from her on Christmas with news on how all the family was doing. We will miss her dearly.

Dear Kevin, Debbie, Rod, Crystal, David & families
I worked with Dorothy at Wharncliffe (a million years ago) and we have exchanged Christmas cards every year since. When I still hadn’t received one I just had a sinking feeling & googled her name. I am so very sorry for your loss! Your Mom/partner was the most amazing person and I will never forget her great laugh! You will all miss her and especially at this time of year. My sincere condolences to each and every one of you. Hugs to all of you, Elaine Rundle
