We stand firmly and with love as the McManus family copes with a most significant loss: a mother, friend, confidant, teacher, and so very much more. Dorothy will always be remembered fondly and I (Karen) will never forget her lasagna!



Love Karen LaFrance and Family

Sorry for your loss. I share your pain even in Southern Cal. Lean on your friends -- you have many. Good luck to you, Bruce.

She was a wonderful Aunt and person. I wish that I could have seen her more through the years. But I am so glad that I was able to see her at my wedding in June of 2004 before she was sick.
