Hi Bob and family: We have so many wonderful and fond memories of your Mom. She was a true lady and we will always love her! My earliest memories of Dorothy is when she asked me at age 10 to mow her lawn every week or so- I was the richest kid on Oak Street because she paid me $2.50 per week to mow her lawn. I also remember scrapping her garage in preparation for Bob's painting. My grandmother used to work with Dorothy at the old grocery store located in the Opera block on the circle. Dorothy was THE star of Super Duper for so many years. Heaven has gained a very faithful servant and we will always love and miss Dorothy. God bless you all and, remember, you have a guardian angel in heaven watching over you and we will meet Dorothy again. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Blessings, Jeff Batzel and family (Georgia)

Bob & Sally & family, I am so sad to hear of your Mom's passing. I can still see her sitting on the front porch with your Dad.Jusy about everyday we would go to Woody's & she was always so good to us, actually I think she loved to see us all come in!! Whenever I was in Avon to visit & I loved getting to see her, always a big smile. Have many fond memories. I know it is a big loss for you but in your heart she will always be there. She probably is at the first slot machine she could get to!!! And she will win!! Our sympathy Bob, Sally & your family.

Bob and Sal - Sorry to hear about Dorothy. I used to have so much fun with her back in the Woody's days after school. No matter when we would run in to eachother over the years, she always spoke very proudly of you and the grandkids, and gave me a hug and kiss. Her smiling face will be missed. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. John and Mame
