She enjoyed her family and her family cherished her. She was loved and will be missed greatly. She spent many hours documenting family history.

Dorothy was a loving, intelligent, and beautiful person. She will be missed dearly. Her research and scrapbooking of our family's' history was bar none. We had many laughs together and always enjoyed spending time with her. She always put family first, including her cat, and was the most unselfish person. We are so happy she is at peace, pain free, and is watching over us and protecting us in the Kingdom of Heaven. We will see you someday, but not yet. You will always be remembered and never forgotten.

Love,

Robert and Brittany Beeson
