Sterpka Family,

We are deeply saddened by your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

I will miss her. I had hoped to take another
Memoir Class with her. She was an inspiration.
May she rest in peace.

Frank and family,
Very sorry for your loss. The photo of Dottie from our yearbook is how her classmates think of her, bright eyed, talented and special. We will remember her.

My deepest condolences to the Sterpka family and to all others who were in Dottie's life. Dottie was one of many first cousins I was lucky to have and share youth with. Right now she is joining all the Camarra's who passed before her. I can feel the joy Anne and Ester felt when their beloved sister joined them in heaven. Uncle Ralph and Aunt Mary you are together again. RIP dear cousin.❤❤

To Dot's family we send heartfelt condolences from all of her many friends at The Cove Center for Grieving Children. Dot always had a twinkle in her eye, and brought happiness and caring to children and families in the West Hartford Cove. She is and always will be in our hearts for her caring, compassion and good spirit.

Sincere condolences to the Sterpka family. Dot was always an active person--never content to sit still but rather get into the thick of things. She leaves behind a family she loved, a legacy of teaching, and a life devoted to helping others. God bless you, Dot!
