Our family feels blessed to have known dear Dorothy. She was a pillar of our church (PCUMC) and a faithful, hardworking servant of the Lord. We have fond and humorous memories of many interactions with Dorothy that brought us joy and helped us get to know her better. We are so grateful we had the chance to know her and we send our love and prayers to her loving extended family.

Dorothy was a wonderful friend and Christian lady.
She was a great inspiration to all of us as to how to lead a life following the Lord.
We will miss her and her dry wit. Hoping to see you again, Dorothy, in our Heavenly home.

We will always remember Dorothy for the all the Christmas pageant costumes she sewed and fitted every year at church. Everything from sheep to cows to angels, Dorothy did it. Also she was at every fish fry working in the pie room - what a blessing to have had her for so many years at PCUMC!

My condolences to Dorothy's family. She was a dear friend of my late mother from both BGH School of Nursing and from the WNY Doll Cbub. They spent happy times together both on their outings and at the house. She was a lovely woman.
