Not sure what to say?

Still talking about the experience taking your wonderful class at Western New England. You left your mark on this student. RIP knowing you made a difference.

Dorothy was one of my most favorite, memorable college instructors I ever had at STCC, in Speech, in the fall of 1974. She was so kind, intelligent and student-driven. My condolences to her family. May she rest in peace.

I think of Dorothy often. Such an extraordinary woman.... talented in so many ways and a kind and thoughtful person as well. The world needs more people like her. God bless.

Dorothy was a long-time member of St. John's senior choir, which was directed by my dear husband, Dr. Walter English. I will remember her for her deep kindness, her commitment to high standards and generous values, and her joy in friendship. Condolences and peace.

I´m so sorry to read about Mrs Pryor passing away.My late husband Gary was the lead driver for Redding Landing he spoke very kindley if her. Gary passed away in June of 2017,I had the pleasure to speak to many times sitting on the chairs in front of Reeds.

Thank you for all you taught me. I carry the lessons with me still today. May you Rest In Peace.

I was saddened to hear of Mrs. Pryor passing. She was an inspiration to everyone who knew or was able to work with her. My sympathy to her family and dear friends.

It’s hard to find words that aptly convey the admiration and respect that I had for Dorothy throughout her career at STCC and then as a member of my Board of Trustees. She was kind, caring, giving, intelligent and simply an extraordinary person. To meet Dorothy was to love her, she exhibited such warmth and kindness from the moment you first met her. It was an honor and a privilege to be able to call her my friend. She will be missed. May God bless her and may she rest in peace.
