Dorothy was my beloved Aunt. I spent most of my younger years around her. She was so special to me. Such a lot of fond memories.
I will always miss her and think of her with love.
Niece, Nancy

When I think of Ms. Dorothy I think about her smile and gentle ways she presented to everyone she met in her life. Ms. Dorothy was one of my Sunday School Teachers and encouraged me to join the choir and when I got older to teach Sunday School. She made sure the little children learn the words to "Jesus Loves Me", Lord's Prayer and the Creed. My mom chose her to be my Godmother which was a blessing in my life. She wore the apron in my wedding for the Polish Apron Dance. She played a big part in showing me the spirituality of life. She was a dear friend of my Mom, Marie Pool. She was very dedicated to the U.S. Military and I remember her waving the flag in the Elkridge Parades. In closing, "This is for Ms. Dorothy", Jesus loves me this I know for the Bible tells me so. LIttle Ones to Him Belong. They are weak but he is strong. Yes, Jesus Loves Me. Also her famous greeting, "YOU WHO!"
