So sorry to hear about Dorothy's passing, fond memories of times shared at the Gilbert's on Mother's Day. We know Grammie was one of the first to welcome her at Heaven's Gates, keep your memories close to you and be comforted in knowing that you will see each other again. Love, Granpy (Don Gilbert), Pat, Kim, Chuck and the kids

Dorothy Shea was an amazing lady and will truly be missed by so many people. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family during this time.
We will think of her every time we decorate our christmas tree and hang our Silver Bells.
