Biography
Dot Binley was born 20 September 1917 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. She appears on the 1921 Canada Census living with her parents & siblings on Fairview Road, Ladner, British Columbia, Canada. No record of a baptism was found. She was administered the Sacramental Rite of Confirmation on 17 Dec 1933 in St. John the Divine Anglican Church, Central Park, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. She attended Inman Avenue School from about 1924-1932.

They continued to live in Burnaby and retired to Bowen Island, British Columbia in about 1975. In 1989 they moved to Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada. Bruce died in 2004 and in 2005 she moved to Vancouver where she died in 2007.
