Dorothy "Dottie" Bender

To the Bender Family: The loss of your Mother has been felt by many. She was a Beautiful Woman with a Beautiful Heart. When she would pass My Aunt Madeline's room I would yell out & she would say Come Here I Want A Hug. She knew my voice & Her Hug was Always Special. May She Rest In Paradise

To all of the family of Dottie I loved your mom so much she called me Milky Way & i'll never forget that or her, she was a very special woman. Her life stories amazed me then to find out they were all true cracked me up i always looked foreward to being one of her nurses she will never be forgotten and always loved

our thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Dorothy was my mom's best friend and boy did they show it. She was always laughing and enjoying life. My aunt Dot was a large part of my life growing up and I had a large love and respect for her and uncle Zeke. I will always cherish my friendship and comraderie with Sue, Jack, Peggy and Billy. God bless you all.

Throughout all of my life, just the mention of Dorothys name caused my heart to smile. I am smiling and crying right now just remembering her. Her relationship with my mother, showed me what best friends looked like. My mom's laugh when she was with Dorothy...was like no other. I am so blessed with memories and grateful to have been connected with such a loving and beautiful family.

My sincere condolence on the loss of sweet Dottie. I cared for her at Scranton Health Care. She was a beautiful shining light to all. Always dressed in beautiful outfits with matching lipstick .. I told her she was really a classy lady! We shared many talks and had lot's of laughs...she was as sharp as a tack and didn't miss a trick! May she rest in peace.

Dot was a never ending source of love, life, and enduring charm. Her story telling skills captured the interest all who were within hearing. Her spirit will continue in and through her extended family.

To all of Dottie's family; My deepest sympathy goes out to each and every one of you. My hope is that you will all find comfort in your memories and continue to share her contagious smile and joy she found in the love of her family.God Bless.

So sorry for the loss of your Mother Sue. My Thoughts and prayers sent to you and your family . Vanessa Mineo Bonevich
