Dorothy Mae "Mommie" King

As we approach your Birthday, Mommie 11/20 we will make it our business to CELEBRATE YOU! You are and forever will be in our thoughts and very near to our hearts. Your "Johnny Johnstons" made sure I would never forget the date he proposed to me, so he made sure to do so on your birthdate back on: November 20, 2021. We love to love you Mommie. Happy Heavenly Birthdate, pretty Lady! :)

Dorothy's family will host a memorial service held at Palm Southwest Mortuary, located at 7979 W Warm Springs Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89113 on August 31st, at 12:00pm

RIP Queen <33333

Re-united

Besides the lulabies you sang for me when I was a child, I will always remember talking about our experiences we shared living on the farm, which we agreed was "paradise" in Lake Providence, LA. As a teenager, like many of your friends, you were bold enough to journey North with the Great Migration of young people in search of a better life, economically. After finding a job and a place to stay, you returned to take me back with you to the "promised land" in Milwaukee, where we had no family. Together, we would overcome many challenges and circumstances, which you began to write about in your unfinished memoirs. Some of those episodes would make a best seller or motion picture. I was honored to have played the role of your little champion and protector forever fighting by your side. Perhaps, I will finish the book for you.

Mommie was so love by all who knew her. Because of her unselfish love she made sure all of her children & grandchildren had a verse to her infamous song; "This world is all of thine creation". We loved to laugh & sing along when we all came together. Rest well, my dear Grandmother Mommie. I love you!
