DorothyDONKINIt is with the deepest sadness we share the passing of our adored Dot, who passed away peacefully on 31st May 2026 at the RSUH, surrounded by the love of her family.

Dot was the heart and soul of the Donkin family, a devoted wife and soulmate to her beloved husband Tony; a much-loved mum of Lorraine, Mark, Tracy and Gail; cherished mother-in-law of Gino, Sandra, Colin and Reg; proud and loving nan of Rob, Rachel, Courtney, Olivia, Dario, Eleanor and James; treasured great-nan of Zara, Izaak, Zac, Jensen and Billy.

Her kindness, warmth, wisdom and unwavering love touched countless hearts. She leaves behind a family who will miss her beyond words and cherish her memory forever.

Our lovely Nanny Biscuit 🤍
I hope you knew just how lucky we were to have you as our Nanna
You brought us up on Pippin, Mars bars & all the love in the world - your home is my happy place

If you could send some sun our way so I can get the washing on the line, I’d appreciate it - but it breaks my heart knowing that i can’t ring you to ask you if it will actually dry - our favourite conversation

I’ll love & miss you forever Nanna, our memories I’ll cherish and I’ll never stop telling your little Billy all about his amazing nanny biscuit.
I’m so lucky to have had you in my life, I hope I carry on making you proud xxxxx
