Dorothy "Eileen" Clinch

1946-2022

Dorothy "Eileen" Clinch

The passing of Dorothy "Eileen" Clinch, wife of Douglas Clinch of Grand Manan NB occurred at the Grand Manan Hospital, Grand Manan NB on April 23, 2022. Born on Grand Manan NB on June 29, 1946, she was a daughter to the late Gordon and Mavis (Wilson) Brown. A loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, in addition to her husband of 59 years, Douglas, Eileen is survived by her children: Bill (Amy), Ian (Cantrese), Todd (Stacey) and Tina (David); many grandchildren and great-grandchildren; nieces, nephews and cousins. Beside her parents, she was predeceased by one grandson: Warren Chandler.

After working for many years boning herring and packing sardines for Connors Brothers and working in homecare, Eileen retired to be a stay at home wife and enjoyed her retirement with her husband and loved to be in the company of her beloved dog Molly and her grandchildren who were truly her pride and joy.

Eileen always had a smile and a hello for everyone she met whether she knew you or not. She loved sitting on the doorstep watching the birds and come springtime she could be found out on the lawn picking up the rocks left behind from winters snow plowing. She often said it was like picking berries, only she couldn't eat them. Eileen enjoyed her evenings watching TV with Doug and doing her diamond dot paintings and seek a word puzzles. Her love and devotion will be sadly missed by her family.
