I wish I could've been there to help all of you. Dorothy was a great lady, she always had a smile on her face, & she was most proud of all her family. Who could ask for anything more. I was blessed to know her & all of her family.

To all of Dorothy's family: I knew Dorothy for 4 years because I worked at Brown County Health & Living. She was always so sweet and loving, kind, and always had a smile on her face. May you find comfort in your time of loss by remembering all the joy she brought with her.
