I enjoyed working with Dottie at MassMutual. She was always so pleasant to interact with. May she rest in peace.

I remember Mrs. Royko, I lived up the street as a child and went to her house sometimes as her son Steve was my brothers' friend. She was so sweet and had a beautiful home. I always felt so welcome there, I remember Mrs. Royko fondly even though we moved in 1979 to Seattle, WA, she is one of the kindest people from my earliest childhood memories. I'm sure she is sorely missed by all who knew her. Much love.

Jack and family. So sorry to read of Dottie's passing. Worked with her at Hadley Garden Center and she was a wonderful person to work with. Incredibly talented and had a fun personality as well. Though I had not seen her for many years, she left a life long impression in my memory.

Jack and the Royko family. My deepest sincerest condolences on the passing of a beautiful lady. Dottie was my first cousin, and every day that I saw her it was nothing but a big smile and a big hug I can remember taking the train from Springfield to Northampton with my mother to have wonderful dinners with the Murphy clan. Dottie and my brother John we´re soulmates born a month apart they bonded for life I know at the sad moment that your dear wife and mother will be a great loss, but one...
