I first met Dorothy in 1970 while I was working with her husband Leland. Both touched my life and my heart in so many ways. I will always be blessed to have known the Crofts. Chancy you told me a story about traffic and the way that your Mom and Dad would handle it so diferently, it brings a smile to my face to this very day. Dona Lee I still have and cherish your bride doll.
My condolences to all.

I worked for Toni Croft at UAA and spoke to Chancy several times. I found them both to be community-minded, public-service oriented individuals. "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." My condolences to all.
