A BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL LADY AND WHAT A SMILE......KEEP THE SPIRIT

Sorry, I just heard about the loss of this delightful woman. Sometimes news moves slowly. Dorothy joined us a few times for the Annual Hauser Family Reunion in Waukesha. She always had fun family stories and experiences to share. Enjoyed those about my mom, Patricia Hauser when she and Dorothy were little girls together! Heard many wonderful stories of Clara Clancy and others too! Lord has reunited all of them! Hallelujah!

Dorothy was wonderful and friendly person to me and my family. She was always ready for a conversation on any topic. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

Dorothy was a dear friend, and a loyal volunteer at Blessed Teresa of Calcutta parish. Our group of former staffers and volunteers enjoyed going out to movies and dinner, and celebrating our birthdays together. Rest in peace my dear friend. Until we meet again.

Dorothy was my aunt, my godmother, and a wonderful role model. Her Irish eyes were always smiling, never more so than during our trip to Ireland. Rest in peace, Dorothy. Love, Linda
