Her joys were camping, fishing, and going for 4-wheeler rides with her loving husband and family. Dorothy will be deeply missed by her family, loved ones and everyone who was blessed to have known her.
My Mom-Your arms forever open, your hugs that held me tight; your special goodnight kisses to last throughout the night. A shoulder I could cry on, a softly spoken word, an all-familiar song you’d sing, the sweetest that I’ve heard. To me, you are a flower Mom so delicate and fair. You’ve given fragrance to my life by simply being there.
