I found out today that your mom passed, and please accept my condolences. She will always have a special place in my heart.

We Orlosky kids always called your mom Auntie Dora, so much that I thought she was my real aunt - for years! I don´t think anyone knows this, but there was one night, when I was about 12 years old, I was having a bad asthma attack and your mom made black coffee for me and took me outside to the front of her house, siting on the sidewalk with me until the asthma attack subsided. It was really late at night, but she stayed by my side because my mom wasn´t there. I´ll never forget that.

She was really loving, perhaps even more so in her later years, as she would sometimes share kind words and sweet memories from times with my mom, Lori. She always was a firecracker of energy, and I still remember those wild flea market trips. I loved how she wrote or shared posts about God later in life, and it seemed to me that she grew in her faith. I don´t think it´s a coincidence that I learned about her death just moments after watching a Christian show about what heaven might be like.

May God have mercy on her, and bring her to everlasting life. She is still very much my Auntie Dora.

Love,
Stevie

P.S. Your mom is buried in the same cemetery as her good friend Lori and my brother Niel.
