I remember Dora, she'd always tell us what she'd been doing. I think she also did alterations. But what a nice lady. She was a customer of mine, and I changed jobs and lost touch with her. I worked across the street from Bowlarama. Didn't she also go dancing out in Chesapeake somewhere? Oh well, remembering her fondly, and all her funny stories! You all are in my prayers.
