Dorothy and I are first cousins.We last talked about 80 years ago at our grandmother Hildebrand's house. I just learned of her passing today, 6/17/2023, through an email I received from Geni and want to send my belated condolences to her family.

When I worked at Kroger, I got the opportunity a few times to visit with Dorothy. She always made my day. She was a beauty inside and out. My condolences to the family. She definitely left footprints on many hearts. Love and prayers.
