Doreen Keyes 1946 - 2025
Iris (Orysia) Walsh 1942 - 1998
Sisters Cremation Tattoo


Written by Jo-Anne Harris
For starters I love my tattoo. Kerri is an artist in the true sense of the word . Thank you for bringing this everlasting memory to my body.
My sister ORYSIA Walsh was born in November 1942 and died in September 1998. We travelled throughout Manitoba together and no trip was complete without Leonard Cohen’s songs, especially “everybody knows and Hallelujah!”
She was my second mother and my world collapsed when she died suddenly.
Doreen battled with heart and kidney issues and was taken from us too soon. She was born in January 1946 and passed in August 2025 a person who you experienced in the most loving way!
Her children’s friends were all welcomed in her home with opened arms and a plate of food and drink. She was very stubborn and always got her way. Christmas Eve was so much fun and always had us singing “I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas “ everyone would always be Welcomed in her home.
There are brighter stars in the sky as my sisters watch over us!
Dance Dance wherever you may be!
