Dobbyn, Bernice (Bunny) J. (nee Russell) passed away peacefully at sunset, at Sunset Lodge, on September 20, 2021.
Predeceased by her parents, Mary and Horace Russell, Bunny is lovingly remembered by her daughters, Cathie Dobbyn (Victor and Kelsey Anonsen) and Jackie Martin (Vince); grandson, Ron Wallace; and her son, Keith Dobbyn; she is also remembered by her many friends she worked with at the Bank of Montreal in downtown Victoria.
Many thanks to all the wonderful workers that kept mom happy for over 5 years at Sunset Lodge on Arm Street. No service by request, and if anyone wishes to donate to the BCSPCA in her name, she would love that.
We miss her terribly.
Offer Condolence for the family of Bernice (Bunny) J. Dobbyn [1]

Words can’t express how saddened I am to hear of the loss of your sweet Mother.
I have very fond memories of Bunny from many years ago. She always had a lovely smile on her face and a kind heart.
Hugs,
