  4. Dorothy was always known as “Sunny” in the urology community. Suntanned, but especially for her personality. An outstanding theatre nurse, and first of the specialty urology nurses. An anchor in the development of Ballarat Urology, and loved by all the staff. Sympathy to her family on their sudden loss. May memories of her smile and sparkling eyes stay with you.

  8. My deepest sympathy to Dorothy’s three beautiful girls and their families on the sudden loss of your gorgeous mum. Known as Sunny to many who knew her, she was a pioneer in Urology nursing . Her skills, knowledge and teaching abilities were exceptional. We had many laughs and so much fun back in the day!
