Deepest sympathy to all of Dorothy's family. Such a memorable person and classmate, always such a delight to visit with over our 64 years of knowing one another. She will be missed. May she R.I.P. Shirley Santo - Posted by: Shirley Santo (Friend. Nursing classmate) on: Nov 23, 2015

Dear Michael, Scott & Warren. I was saddened to learn of Dorothy's passing. I wish I could have seen her in recent years. I can still hear her great laugh. She was so warm, caring, gentle, and fun to be around. My Mom and her were best friends and almost like sisters because of their closeness in age. You had a wonderful Mom and she's now your angel looking over you. xxxooo - Posted by: Dawn Ritchie (cousin) on: Jul 28, 2015

Dorothy was a wonderful fun lady. I enjoyed so much her visits to my salon. She always had a smile and a giggle even when she wasn't well. She will be truly missed. - Posted by: Anne Cudney (Hairstylist and friend) on: Jun 06, 2015
