  • Notes 
    • Dorothy was a member of St Andrews Presbyterian Church Kitchener, ON. She was a co-founder with her Aunt in establishing Laura Sharpe Flowers in 1940. She was predeceased by her husband William Dick in 1964 & her brother Gordon. She led a full and rich life with a strong work ethic, but still found time to be an avid sports enthusiast. Bowling and golf to name only two. Dorothy shared her floral professionalism very freely with the people of the K-W community for over 60 years.
