Aunt Dorothy always made me feel welcome in her home. When I think of true, genuine kindness, she's often someone that comes to mind. She didn't concern herself with small town politics or gossip. She was nice, she liked people, and I always looked up to her for that. The world really lost one of its most decent people. We'll miss you Aunt Dorothy. Sending you love from Brazil.

Snowball, Donna, Amy, Don, and Jason:
When I first moved to Marathon so many years ago, your dear friendship and help with so many things was my salvation. Now, so many years later and after having drifted apart, to learn of Dorothy's passing weighs heavy on my heart. How I wish I could have spent a bit more time with her. How I wish I could give each of you a huge hug. All I can offer are words, and they seem so little with a loss so profound. But I will tell you this. Although Dorothy's physical body is gone from this earth, the LOVE you shared with your mom/wife never dies. It's not physical. It's energy and it binds itself to you always. She will stay in your hearts and minds forever. Her physical presence, her smile, her laughter, and her hugs will definitely be missed but her spirit will be with you when you need her if you watch for the signs. My thoughts are with you all. She was and IS very special. Linda (Contento) Schmidt

Mom. I love you. I will miss you forever. You were my rock, my sunshine, my biggest supporter and my loudest fan. You were always proud of us kids--we three redheads, your tall and handsome "Wheaton" boy, and we were so lucky yo be the ones that were able to call you 'Mom". So many, many people here loved you so much and we are lost without you--especially Dad. We will do our damnest to take care of him but after spending 63 years holding your hand he is so hurt. He told me today that when he saw you that he knew he had just seen the most beautiful girl in the world and no one else could touch you, He was right. You had a true beauty, both inside and out, that was rare and honest and you touched so many people. I love you, Mom. Forever and always.
