Dorothy worked at Perhach Pharmacy for many years and was proud of decorating their windows for all the holidays, a special thanks to Michael and Annie Perhach for all their kindness over the years. A special thanks to Jean and North Leppert for their years of devotion and kindness shown to Dorothy. Also, a special thanks to Phyllis Giordani for her years of friendship. The family also would like to thank McDonald's on Court St. for making the best fish sandwiches and fries on a Sunday morning to be enjoyed on the front porch while reading the Press and Sun Bulletin. A Funeral Mass will be held at 11am on Thursday July 9, 2020 at St. Paul's Church in Binghamton, NY. Burial will follow in Calvary Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in Dorothy's memory to the American Legion Post 1645 in Binghamton, NY.

Margaret: Please accept my most sincere and heartfelt condolences on your moms passing. The memories made from growing up next door on Riverside Street will last an eternity. I would always be greeted with a hello Michael and a wave whenever I would see her. May the memories made with her guide you through this difficult time. God Bless.
