My deepest sympathy to Dorothy's family. She certainly left a legacy to be proud of.
Dorothy was a frequent visitor to the Waltham library where I worked for many years. She was one of the sweetest people I have met. Always a smile on her face and a kind word. We would share stories about our families since I knew Melody and Sue Ellen and a few of her grandchildren.
May the memories you have be forever comforting when you are missing her. God bless you all and Rest In Peace...

Dorothy was so hospitable to many of us older women at Second Church. Tea and "goodies" at her house were special. Lee Longman

I grew up five houses away and was a frequent visitor at the Lydons. Dot always made "Brion Duffee" feel welcomed. I'm honored to have known her and the whole Lydon clan.
