DOROTHY BARTON Obituary

DOROTHY BARTON With great sadness, our entire family mourns the passing of our beloved Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother Dorothy Barton. Born March 14, 1939, Dorothy passed in Midland in the early morning of January 1, 2015. We all share many fun and loving memories, which will help us get through her passing and remember her fondly in years to come. Survived by her husband Bruce of 54 years; sister Joyce Watson; children Sharon Meneley (Conrad), Michael Barton (Eva) and Joy; grandchildren David Blackstock (Ricki-Lee), Chris Blackstock (financée Amanda) and Caleb Fisher Barton (Brittanie); great- grandchildren Isabella, Cameron and Ryder Ann Rose. Till roses lose their petals, Till the heather has lost its dew, Till the end of time, Dear Mother, we love you. Your beautiful face is the first we see, From morn till night, smile so pretty. You are our heart, our life and our soul. Sweet wife and Mom, Blessed and bound by your everlasting love. Your face is the first we will touch again. Forever in Eternity to never part again.
