On July 18, 1970, she married Robert Belanger and the two made their home in Augusta.

Dot loved to cook, and that passion and creativity led her to try her hand at making cakes. One way she expressed her love for family and friends was by gracing many weddings and anniversaries, birthdays and special occasions with her amazing creations. She took much joy in sharing her talent with those she loved.Dot’s favorite place was at the camp having her morning coffee on the deck, tending to her flowers, and going for pontoon boat rides on Androscoggin Lake.

She loved family gatherings at the camp especially having the brothers and sisters over for a lobster feed and at times having a sleep over.

Dot was kindhearted and generous, she touched the lives of many people, her family, co-workers, friends, and those in need. She will be greatly missed.

She was predeceased by her parents; brother Gerard “Butch” Beaulieu, brother-in-law Larry Sirois and Ron Roussel.
