My prayers are with each of you. I hope to be at the Mass. I had a stroke which makes getting around hard. I have happy memories of your mother and of you.
Love, Mr. Rotchford

To all the children of Aunt Dora--
I am the daughter of Dora's brother Leger. Growing up the only baby girl in the family for many years, Aunt Dora used to spoil me with candy and ice cream, so needless to say - she was always my favorite Aunt. I lost contact with her for many years after she married and moved away. However, my husband and I were able to surprise her at her 80th birthday party and I am so glad that we were able to make it and see her again. While we were there, we could see how close of a family you all were and how much you loved your mom. I'm sure she will be solely missed. Our prayers and thoughts are with you all.
