Our sympathies to the family. My fondest memories are of evenings out with Dorothy and Jim when we spent our
golf winnings on dinners at the top of the Inn. They were a happy part of our lives will be sorely missed.
Aunt Dot would chuckle and laugh when she would tell of the time she brought me over to her house when I was just a little one. I must have been scared, as I screamed for what must have been hours poor Uncle Jim was tested to his limit. Aunt Dot was very patient and eventually I calmed down. By her own actions Aunt Dot showed me what devotion to family is like and how to love one another. I will always define what a beautiful person is by remembering “Aunt Dot” and her unconditional love.
Jim, Cindy & family. We are sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. May you find strength and love in your memories. LeeAnn & family
Dorothy was such a warm and loving person. She was always there for my brothers and I. Life will never be the same without her but I know I’m a better person because of her. I love you Dorothy.
