Obituary of Clarice Doyle

DOYLE, Clarice Dale (Née Martinson).

August 11, 1952-July 3, 2021

It is with great sadness and much love that we mourn the passing of Clarice Doyle of Langley, BC, on July 3, 2021 at the age of 68 after a short illness.

Clarice was born on August 11, 1952 in Rose Valley, SK, to Clarence and Darlene Martinson and spent most of her childhood in Prince George, BC. She was the second of seven children and was an excellent student who enjoyed reading and spending time in the garden. She married Allen Doyle on January 11, 1975 and they raised their two children together in Nipawin, SK. Clarice always recognized the value of education, and returned to school after her children were grown to graduate with her Honours Bachelor of Commerce degree in 2008, which allowed her to become a Certified General Accountant. Clarice worked as an accountant in Regina, SK until her retirement in 2017, when she moved to Langley, BC in order to be close to her young granddaughter, Violet.

Clarice was preceded in death by her father, Clarence, her brother, Darrel, and her step-father, Bernard. Clarice is survived by her mother Darlene of Quesnel, BC; brothers Gene (Bonnie) Martinson of Quesnel, BC and Ardin (Corrina) Martinson of Kamloops, BC; sisters Beatrice Gaal of Prince George, BC, Ardith Atkins of Welland, ON, and Olene (Art) Moi of Terrace, BC; son Neil Doyle of Coquitlam, BC; daughter Freda (Blair) Reinhart of Edmonton, AB; grandchildren Jamie, Carter, Luke, Anna, and Violet; and numerous nieces and nephews.
