Gary and I have just learned that your mother, grandmother has jointed Floyd in heaven. We were neighbors in Jackson, visited them in Florida and kept in contact with Dorine in Spring Arbor. We will miss talking to her on the phone. Gary and Sue Jewell, Monroe, MI.

My husband and I met Dorine when she lived at Aston Gardens in Florida. She was a resident that had formed a tight friendship with my father-in-law who also lived there. She was a sweet lady who was very friendly and witty. Dad will miss her daily phone calls. So sorry for your loss.

Thinking back to the good times Jerry and I shared with you and Floyd and also how you and Marcia stayed close. You are now united with Floyd and other family members up there above. Rest in peace Dorine.
