Dorothy Liebich Obituary

Please join us in raising a glass of rosé to Dorothy Liebich! November 12, 1930 – June 24, 2025 Dorothy is survived by her daughters, Karen Joy Fritz and Kristina McDaniel, five grandchildren, two great grandchildren, and her cat Lily (who now lives with Krissy). As her many friends in Michigan, Maryland, Georgia, North Carolina, California, and Arizona will attest, she was truly curious and cared deeply about people. She enjoyed exploring through travel, cruising, and eating ice cream. Any time Patsy Cline or Johnny Cash came on, she had to get up and dance. Dorothy's beading, knitting, and sewing were as meticulous as her bookkeeping, from which she retired at age 89. Please hold the family gently at this time. In lieu of flowers, we request donations to Hospice of the Valley if you are so inclined. P.S. If you notice any giraffes or kokopeli things, it's a wink from Mama Dot!

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
