Dorothy was a wonderful neighbor. I often think about how much she enjoyed watching our daughter play through the kitchen window. We never had to worry about a thing with her around because she always kept a watchful eye on our house. Our thoughts are with you during this time.

I think my brother Chris said it the best, "Visiting PA will not be quite
the same anymore. Both her and Bill made our visits a lot of fun." He also added, "She(Dorothy) was always good with uncle Sonny. Sonny had many smiles when he spoke to her and Jerry." God Bless

I'm very, very sorry to hear of her passing, but we know that she's in a much better place. I'm sure my mother was waiting for her best friend to arrive. I'm sure they're talking, and they're having a wonderful time.
