  5. I dropped by to visit her several months ago; some fifty years since we last spoke don’t you know. Amazingly Dorothy remembered who I was; the gleam she still had in her eyes made my spirit buzz. We shared memories of working at St. Mary’s five decades back; a kind and gentle conversationalist, oh she had the knack. Approachable and warm-hearted can only describe her being. For her good natured personality gave one a benevolent feeling. Although Dorothy has stepped across the threshold of time, memories of working with her are eternally sublime. . . . . Heartfelt sympathy and prayers for Dorothy and her loved ones.

  6. I didn’t know your mother personally, but I do know she had to be a sweet lady or she wouldn’t have raised such a wonderful family. Condolences to all the family. May precious memories help ease the grieving process. God Bless you all.
