Miss Dorothy was such a wonderful example to me. A woman with deep faith and love for her family, she was always positive and encouraging to me as a young mother and throughout my life. She will be missed on this earth, but I am assured she has gone Home and is with her Heavenly Father and embracing all those who have gone before her. With love and admiration
