I was honored to join another lady from Sumner Presbyterian Church to read to Evelyn Scripture and Devotionals for a half hour before her lunch for several weeks while she was at Franklin House. I then moved farther away and could not make it every week. When we agreed to go together to see her again, she had been moved...and we lost contact. I enjoyed visting with her and sometimes she would tell us about her life. She was excited about her family and had a keen sense of humor that she displayed every once in a while. A very genuine, classy lady. May God be with the Family as you celebrate her life.

I have so much love and respect for Grandma Dorenbush. Mark has always adored her and from the moment I joined the family she always treated me like family. I loved her generous heart, her spunk, and her caring and concern for everyone in the family. She will be greatly missed. Love, Kayla and Mark Ehnat
