"Granny" will be missed by so many people that she touched the lives of through her many years.. She possessed such talent with the beauty of her arrangements. She brought joy and love into our lives...Always a part of our births, our weddings and in death.. Her flowers brought comfort in times of sorrow and smiles in times of joy... We will never look at a flower in the same way without thinking of "Granny Clontz".

I will never forget "Granny" as I liked to call her. All the good times we had when I was growing up in my mom's flower shop. She was a very good person, and she will be missed.

Pam and I will miss Dorryce Clontz. We remember fondly her love of flowers and the assistance she always was willing to give the deacons and ushers at First Baptist Church, Park Street in maintaining the lapel flowers for these groups. We know her service for the Lord will be missed in this place.

We will miss Dorryce. She loved making people feel good with her heartfilled expressions of love. People would always say, "her flower

arrangements would last and last".

Our fond memories of Dorryce will last just as long and longer. We always admired the petite lady at First Baptist Church, and loved her as a friend and neighbor. We admire and respect another person, who we later learned was her brother, Courtney. Fruit never drops too far from the tree. Our beloved Dorryce Clontz and Courtney Powell are knowned for their good fruits. As a little child of God once told me, "I love you all the way to Heaven and back, and more".

Dorryce, "We love you all the way to Heaven and back, and more".



Love in Christ,

Beth and Ron Harvey

Mrs Clontz provided the flowers for my daughter's wedding about 20 years ago..my daughter was so anxious about every little detail of her wedding. I can see Mrs Clontz now...patting her hand and assuring Rose that everything would be exactly as she wished it to be! She was so sweet and understanding.

We are so sorry to hear of her passing. I still remember the beautiful flowers she did for my wedding (23 years ago this month) and the beautiful silk arrangement she made me as a gift when I was married - it still sits as beautiful as ever in our living room. She will be missed by all. Fondly, Anne, Jim and Ross Shipe and Margaret Y. Ross
