Dadrian Mclean

Dadrian Sue (Dee) Collins (nee McLean)
October 4, 1959 ~ September 28, 2015

Dadrian passed away on Monday, September 28 after a two year battle with cancer – much too young but at a happy time in her life. She had married Bryan Collins, of Mississippi, in August. They had far too short a time together.
She will be greatly missed by her husband, Bryan, her brother, Doug (Margaret) of Athens, ON, her sister, Deanna (Larry) of Edmonton and her very dear, childhood friend, Susan Fay Smith of Ottawa. She was predeceased by her parents: Douglas in April 2014 and Dorrien in January 2015.
Dadrian was known for her quick wit and wry sense of humour, her incredible musical talent and her love of cats.
The family wishes to thank the staff at the Elizabeth Bruyere Palliative Care Unit for the care they gave Dadrian during the last weeks of her life. Thanks are also extended to the CCAC nurses who made it possible for Dadrian to spend her last few days at home. These caring individuals made this difficult journey manageable. We also want to thank all the friends who provided rides to medical appointments over the last two years.
For anyone wishing to remember Dadrian, please make a donation to a charity of your choice. At her request, there will be no service.
