She drew my attention to the Obituary published in yesterday's Ottawa Citizen
Paul David Donohue July 25, 1932 - March 20, 2013 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Paul on March 20, 2013 in New Port Richey, Florida.

Paul is also survived by the mother of his children Shirley Robey Donohue.

May3 update: Further note from Shelagh.

You take the 401 West to 403 Hamilton to QEW Hamilton to Waterdown Road exit, turn left towards lake, turn right on  Plains Rd. W, for 3 or 4 lights OR 401 West to 403 Hamilton to 407 West Hamilton to Waterdown exit, turn left towards lake, turn right on Plains Rd W.  If you cross Botanical Dr. you've gone too far .  Holy Sepulchre Cemetery is on left side.  Turn left at 1st driveway (you can see headstones), go towards back of cemetery.  You will see an old chapel at the back, keep on the driveway to the left of it (East side).  You will see a small white mausoleum.  The name on it is Cullen.  Donohue headstone is in next row north of mausoleum facing Plains Rd. and is 4th headstone in from the roadway.  The graveside service will be there for Paul Saturday May 4th @ 10am followed by reception on site, on 2nd floor of large newer chapel/mausoleum @ 10:30am.

For those of you who knew my mother Shirley,  sadly she passed away peacefully at St. Joseph's Hospital in Hamilton April 30th @ 8:45pm (April 17, 1934 - April 30, 2013) following pneumonia after her 79th birthday.  Funeral is Monday May 6th @ Dodsworth and Brown funeral home, Robinson chapel at 15 West Ave. N. (King St./West Ave.).  Visitation is 11am to 1pm followed by funeral service @ 1pm and then cremation.  Burial yet to be determined.  Directions above are the same except you pass Waterdown Rd. exit and take York Blvd.  West Ave. follows Wellington.  Turn right on West Ave, past 2 stop signs.  Funeral home is on the right with parking.  Eastbound directions - take 401 East towards Toronto to 403 East Hamilton, exit Main St. East (1 way) past West Ave., take next left turn, to King St. W., back to West Ave., turn right.  Funeral home will be on left side.

Regards,
Shelagh Donohue
