Dorothy Grushow Obituary

GRUSHOW, Dorothy Age Undisclosed. Born in New York to Louis and Eva Plotkin. Leaves behind her husband of 57 years, Herb Grushow, children, Janet and Sandy Grushow, grandchildren, Aaron and Sam Grushow, all living in the Los Angeles area. It was difficult for anyone that came into contact with Dorothy, not to recognize her warmth and tremendous heart. To know her was to love her. May she rest in peace.

Dear Janet and Sandy. We've never met but your mother helped me with information for our family tree (we are cousins). I'm so very sorry for your loss. From the previous Guest Book entries, it sounds like she was a wonderful person. If you have a chance, you can visit the family tree at http://www.myheritage.com/site-45211821/swedelson-web-site and request to be a member. Again, I am very sorry for your loss.

With much love and warm memories of a dear person. Janet, Sandy and Herb, may the memory of Dorothy and her sweet and warm smile be of comfort during this difficult time. I share many wonderful memories of our summers together -- she was a "mom" to so many!
