Frank & I just found out about both Dot & Tom. Please accept our sincere condolences. I have many fond memories of Dot from our early days together. We started out at the Marino Sisters Dance Studio and went on to "Jiggs" Bakeman. We had a lot of fun doing the GBARC shows together also.

Rest in peace Aunt Dotty, I will miss you and how we used to sing Christmas songs as we washed the dishes after Thanksgiving dinner every year. Rest easy as you are now with Uncle Tommy, Nana and Pa. Watch over Karen as she needs her angels now. Love you Always

I am in shock and so sad about your passing. You were such a loving, special and strong person whom I admired so much. I always called you a "Walking Miracle" because it was a MIRACLE to see you work so hard and push yourself to go back to the old Aunt Dotty. Me and dad will miss our Monday and Friday visits, our talks, your smile, your laughter, going to the gazebo and feeding the birds and simply being with you. The extra time we had with you was a gift and something I will treasure forever. It is somewhat comforting to know you died happy. You had a wonderful Thanksgiving over Aunt Peggy's house then went to visit Karen and had a special time with her. On Friday we brought up a Christmas tree and decorations and had so much fun decorating and then that night you went to the GBARC show and had a such a great night. When I called you on Saturday you sounded tired but happy. We always talked about going to New York to see the Rockettes and that is something I will do to honor you. So you Rest in Peace now with Uncle Tommy and now you both can watch over Karen whom you both love so much. I Will Miss You So Much and Love You Always! Love Your Niece Dorothy the Tird (As Nana, me and you used to say)
