My memories of Dolly all include her being happy...and wearing a big smile. She was a wonderful woman who raised two amazing children! Love and prayers of comfort to you, Sandi, Layne, and families.

ALL WHO KNEW HER LOVED HER. SHE LOVED HER FAMILY AND HER GOD. IT'S COMFORTING TO KNOW THAT SHE IS AT REST IN THE EVERLASTING ARMS OF THE FATHER. .

Sandi and David, Layne and Debbie -- and your families: Please know that your extended family is greatly sadened to hear of Dolly's death. She and your father were subjects at family gatherings in Nebraska all the time when I was growing up. We would usually take Aunt Zina with us to Nebraska to visit her sisters, including my Grandma, Betty, for the Thanksgiving holidays, and she would always fill us in on the latest with Ed and Dolly, Sandi and Layne. Though we rarely saw any of you, we...

Dolly was one of our dearest friends. We knew each other from when our children were very young. She knew what it meant to be a friend. I can't tell you how many times she demonstrated that to us! She has touched our lives forever. We will miss her soo much! The obit was wonderful and so true!!!!
