Many prayers have been prayed, and many tears have been shed for you and your family.... Andrea....I remember all the times you and I prayed together, and how I listened to you at your weakest times, and how, it seems like, "immediately" you were strengthened....we leaned on each other, and of course, prayed for one another, and I know now, as I did then, God was with you all the time.....watching over you and your Mom, and blessing you, moment by moment, day by day, year in, and year out, and extended your time with your Mother..together....through many trials, and tribulations you have come....Faith has bought you this far, and your faith will lead you on.....Many prayers to you and yours., and may the Spirit of the Lord continue to be with and before you, making clear and easy your path....Yet praying, and yet believing God....always, Frank & Jeanette Caston

The National Kidney Foundation of Indiana is a better organization because of the work of Dorothy Hey. She was so dedicated to the mission. Dorothy and I traveled to national meetings of the foundation. We would be roommates and would plan and discuss the future of the Indiana affiliate. We had a lot of fun while working. Dorothy had an infectious laugh. You could not help laughing with her. She will be missed.
Many thanks to her family for supporting her and sharing her with us.
