Jim and I were very sorry to hear about Aunt Dottie. We rented our first apartment from her and Uncle Ted and they were always very fun to be around.

I was so sorry to hear about Dottie's passing. I told my sisters, Elaine and Lorie, and brother, Paul. Elaine had many fond memories of picnics at the Brown's house and about both our families always getting together with the gang. We will always have wonderful thoughts about the great times shared and I hope you find solace in the fact that she is now with her Lord and Savior and her wonderful husband and your father, Ted. God bless you, Diane Ebberup

I am so sorry for your loss. I still find myself thinking about working at Zuckerbrauns and how Dot would keep me laughing. She was one of a kind. May she rest in peace.

Sorry to learn of her passing. She was one of "regulars" on her street for being there for others and when we were all younger, for the kids especially.

Very sorry for your loss. Dot played an important part in my growing up. She was my Mom away from home. As a kid I could always count on Ted and Dot. May she rest in peace.

So sorry for your loss. Dottie (as well as Ted) played a big part in our life. From the Saturday morning calls with my mom as two girls that grew up together kept that friendship so strong. To her love of a good cup of tea, just don't boil the water. Her love of life, of friends and family will be missed. May you find joy in her memories as that will keep her close.
