Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryLANGLOIS: Dora was born in Pipestone,Manitoba to Emma and Walter Davis on July 19,1923 and passed away December 9, 2021 at the age of 98. After finishing her schooling in Pipestone she moved to Winnipeg where she went to secretarial school and was soon employed by Robin Hood Flour. In 1950 she married Hubert (Bud) Braund. They moved to Virden and had two girls Laurie and Marya. In 1957 Bud tragically lost his life and Mum was left to raise her daughters. She worked several jobs at the same time to provide a living for us. In the early 60's she became employed by John Clarke in Virden and worked for him until her retirement. In 1964 she met Felix Langlois, and they married in 1966. Dad predeceased her in 2006 and Laurie in 2011. Dora thought of her family first, till her last days. I could write a book on her life, but she was a proud and private person. Of all the people I have known she had the greatest influence on me. Left to cherish memories of her are daughter Marya (Garry) Gardiner, granddaughters Jennifer Blair(Joe Leach), Alleesha Macdonald (Karey), Latisha (Chris) Palfenier and great-grandchildren Avery, Presley, Hayden, Karter, and Novah.
