A special thank you to her devoted neighbor, Doug Riffel, was always assisting with small acts of kindness.

Dolly was a long-time and retired employee of Dayco Corporation in Dayton, Ohio. She enjoyed spending time with

family, especially her grandchildren, reading the daily paper, playing cards, watching baseball. In her younger days, Dolly enjoyed auto racing, traveling, fishing, baseball card shows, collecting antiques, and family reunions. Her passion was

photography. Dolly had and infectious laugh. Her gentle hugs would melt one's worry away. She devoted her life to God. Her presence will NEVER be forgotten.
