Rosann, Ricky & Donna,
We were very sorry to hear of your Mother's death. Aunt Dorothy always had a smile and infectious laugh. She enjoyed life and was always happy to share what her children were doing. We hold many fond memories of family gatherings filled with jokes and laughter.
Our hearts ache for each of you and your families. We will keep you in our prayers.
Much love,
The Klodowski Family
Tony, Lori & Brad

Another loss in Lawrenceville. Dorothy always had a smile on her face. Enjoyed playing her lottery numbers at Starr's when I worked there. May God give her the rest she truly deserves.
