Growing up in Watertown , Dora and Ann were fixtures in our lives . I always remember her smile , her welcoming , and always a buffet of delicious foods for a simple lunch . Love and peace to Ann Lazzaro and to you David .

David,

Your mother was always so kind and welcoming to me and my family. As the original East Enders, we all shared a special connection. I´ll never forget how your mother and grandmother taught my father how to plant his first (and last!) garden. When I think back on my childhood, Dora is always there-forever smiling, forever caring, and always reaching to button up my winter coat. She will be deeply missed, but her warmth and kindness will always be remembered. Sending love to you and your family during this time.
