Dorothy Lenhart Obituary
She was born in Pittsburgh on July 22, 1930 to the late Walter and Amanda (Bolan) Blaken.
Dorothy was the loving wife to the late Earl Lenhart, the loving mother of Wayne Lenhart (Judy) of Quakertown, Gerald Lenhart (Deb), and Linda News (William) of Warwick, and the loving grandmother of John (Nutasha), Amanda (Josh), and Kate Lyn (James).
I have been blessed to call this lady MOM for the past 50 years. I hope I can be half the person she was. She was so loving, caring, and helpful. This lady was always there for me. She lived her life the way that she wanted. Fought her battle the way she wanted. She was a tough person. Mowing her own lawn, cleaning gutters, shoveling snow, climbing ladders til the age of 80. I hope to be able to carry on like she had.
Today she passed through the Pearly gates of heaven. I am both thankful and grateful that I had the opportunity to spend her last weeks with her, telling stories, laughing, smiling, and spoiling her with whatever she asked. MOM, I LOVE YOU AND YOU WILL ALWAYS BE WITH ME. THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME THE PERSON I AM TODAY. REST IN PEACE!
Friends and family are invited to Dorothy's interment at 10 a.m. Saturday, at Whitemarsh Memorial Park 1169 Limekiln Pike, Ambler, PA 19002.

It is so hard to believe it is one year since Dot passed. I miss her and her upbeat spirit. There is some comfort in knowing she was at peace and ready.

Dot was a dear friend for many years. We first met working at Pennypack school. She was fun to be with, had many, many lunches together. She loved her family and they loved her back. She made beautiful afgans. I will miss her so much.
