It is with overwhelming sadness that we announce the death of our beloved Andrea, at the Health Sciences North on Friday July 19, 2019, surrounded by her loving family. Beloved wife and best friend of Bill, loving and devoted mother to her three sons, Xander, Dylan and Tyler. She will watch over them forever as their true north, a bright star always shining down upon them. Andrea was the cherished daughter of Ron (Gayle) Dowling and Ellen (Carl Barhorst). Beloved sister of Megen (Sam Galbraith). Dear granddaughter of Audrey (the late Martin Dowling). She will be missed by her in-laws Denis (Gail) Frappier, Kelly Frappier (Rick Hallwood) and Rob (Jessica) Frappier. Andrea was truly loved by her many friends and family. Forever remembered for her sense of humour and her fun-loving ways, she has left behind a legacy of generosity, kindness, and caring. Her beautiful smile is one not easily forgotten. An Award-winning and Nationally Accredited photographer with the Professional Photographers of Canada with specialties in Birth, Newborn, Children and Infant Portrait and Nature, Andrea’s artistic and creative talents touched the lives of many. She took great pride in providing photography to Matheson and area families. She especially loved being present to capture the first images of a family welcoming their newest addition.

Friends are invited to visit at the Matheson Curling Club (211 Hwy 11 N),on Saturday August 3rd, 2019 from 12:00pm – 1:00pm.
