Not sure what to say?

Dorothy was a long time good friend that Iwill miss. We had so many good times through out the last 40yrs. She was strong to go through all the health problems. Well Im sure she singing and playing piano now.

I will miss you at the EHHS reunions as I know you didn´t graduate from Scottdale high school! I will miss you and already do playing words with friends. We were able to catch up during our chat time. May God continue holding you among the angels. God bless your family and thanking Billy for messaging me.

Met Dorothea at Melody Hills Chorus. Was very helpful, kind and loved to sing. May she rest in peace and sing with the angels.

Such a lovely lady. She will surely be missed by many people.

RIP my friend!

So very sorry to see this! Love thoughts and prayers to the family
