Dear Charlie,

We are saddened to hear of Dorothy's passing. She was a wonderful mother, wife and companion. I have nothing but fond memories of my time as your neighbor and our discussions from "over the hedge" while you were nearing your retirement. you were terrific neighbors.

My deepest condolences to you and your family.

Dear Chuck and Family,
How I wish that Ron and I could be with you now for Dorothy's loving celebration of life. It was a life well lived. You have been a stellar example to us or a dedicated and committed marriage. There will be a celebration in heaven with old friends welcoming her home.
sending our love and hugs. Kathy Hespen Forster

Dear Allanson family
Death is sad, but Dorothy had a life well lived.
I knew her thru Mary Kay Ely, and I went to school with Kay. I also tutored Bobbi in math a few times. Mary Kay would talk about the "Good Group."
I believe my Mother, Mary Kay, Ann Sexton and Dorothy drove to Massachusetts after their Senior Year. It was my Mother's car.
Prayers and sympathy to the whole family.
I am glad she is being buried in Cleveland.
Mary Jo Cooper Kranz
