It was my pleasure to have had my life touched by Dorothy and Keith Hohenshelt. For many years they would travel to Florida to see their son and our family (the Hiorns clan). All of us loved them dearly. I know Dorothy will miss him, but, with her strong faith will live with the knowledge that we'll all meet again some day. God Bless the Hohenshelt family.
