Dorothy
Selman
May 11, 1952 — Apr 15, 2023
Pinedale
Our beloved wife and mother, Dorothy (Tousain) Selman, fell asleep in death on April 15, 2023 in Pinedale, WY.
Dorothy fought stage 4 cancer, but didn't allow it to stifle her loving spirit or sense of humor. She died peacefully at home, surrounded by love. She was grateful she was able to spend her final months enjoying time with her friends and family members - many of whom traveled long distances to be with her one last time.
Dorothy was born on May 11, 1952 to Carl and Arlene Tousain of Petoskey, MI. She was baptized on March 9, 1968 as one of Jehovah's Witnesses and her faith was her anchor all her life. She graduated from Petoskey High School in 1970 and went on to marry the love of her life, Russell Selman, on Feb 12, 1972. They remained married for over 51 years! Together they had 4 children and 8 grandchildren and family life was one of Dorothy's greatest joys.
Dorothy was very creative and talented, especially as a watercolor artist. Her favorite subject was flowers. More than anything, she loved people - she made friends wherever she went and was known for her compassionate nature. Being able to laugh with others during difficult times was her special gift and she retained it until her final hours.
She is survived by her husband Russell Selman, her children Andrea Harrison, Jesse Selman, Christopher Selman, & Renee Ewart, and their spouses and children. Also her siblings: Carlene Babcock, Susan Kautza, and Steven Tousain, their spouses, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
We warmly invite you to join us for a celebration of her life on Saturday June 17, 2023 at 3:00 in the afternoon at Rendezvous Pointe 425 East Magnolia Street, Pinedale, Wyoming 82941
