Obituary

Dorothy “Dot” Marie (Hubley) Zwicker, age 81, died unexpectedly at South Shore Regional Hospital on September 22, 2020. Dot was born and raised in Bayswater, NS by her beloved parents, Thomas and Isabel Hubley. She caught the travel bug when she was very young and enjoyed many trips with family and special sisterly friends. Dot was a people person and was a friend to all that met her. She was fortunate to enjoy many lifelong friendships. From a very early age, Dot began and cultivated what would become her lifelong love of entrepreneurship. She worked and supported her husband’s business into their retirement. She dedicated many years to volunteering for multiple non-profit organizations and was a long-standing member of the Western Shore Firemen’s Ladies Auxiliary. She was also proud of her involvement as Leader with the Girl Guides of Canada and her achievement of raising tens of thousands of dollars for Fishermen’s Memorial Hospital in Lunenburg with the help of a dear friend.

Dot’s grandchildren were her absolute crowning glory and there were no bounds to her devotion to Geoff, Luc and Rachel. Nanny was there for them at every turn and whenever they needed her. She will be missed too by Tucker, her cherished four-legged friend. Dot is survived by her husband of 62 years, David L. Zwicker; daughters, Andrea (Greg) Swinamer, Anita (Raymond) Wilwand and unofficially adopted daughter, Dianne (Stevens) Perceval; grandchildren, Geoffrey (Jessy James), Lucas (Bronwyn), and Rachel (Patrick); great-granddaughters, Ruby and Scarlet and sister Erma Bremner.

The family wishes to extend their appreciation to Lunenburg County Home Support, VON, and Bunny for her many years of caring and dedication.
