Not sure what to say?

Dorothy was a member of the writers' club in her neighborhood with me, and we loved anything she wrote. It was often in musical or poetic form, and we realized how talented she was. When she could no longer come to our regular meetings, I used to take our Christmas booklet to her at her home. She always received me graciously.

My son Kell who was in a wheelchair would meet her in the electric wheelchair at Dan's, and they developed a special friendship. She was that kind of person...

I remember Aunt Dorothy as a kind, loving woman who enjoyed life. Aunt Dorothy and Uncle Cyril was always a pleasure to be around and I am happy they are reunited.

I am so blessed by her choice to include me and my children and husband in the family. I appreciate John and Leslie for thier love, care, and steadfast commitment to her when her health was declining and for thier love and care of us as well. We will always feel a hole in our lives that she left but know she is joyous in her reunion of those who went before including her husband and children. Love you all. Angie Sanderson
