Later in life, Dorit spent time with her cherished friends at the Orchard Park senior center, and as a volunteer usher at Shea's Theater. She will always be remembered for her kind heart and infectious smile. Beloved wife of the late Ivo Mohorovicic; devoted mother of John and Mark Mohorovicic; cherished grandmother of Nikolaus, Madeline, Max and David; also survived by her sister, Hannelore of Oakville, Ontario.

I was very saddened to learn of Dorit´s passing. We worked together many years at Sheas. She was always cheerful and very happy to be with her friends at Sheas ! She was also delighted to learn that she came from the same town in Venice as that of the restoration consultant Doris Collins . Dorit also did some work with the restoration team . I will miss her presence, bright smile and cheerful attitude !

I´m so sorry to hear about Dorit. She had a wonderful spirit and will surely be missed. I hope fond memories of her joyous laughter and how much she loved and touched everyone she met will help heal the loss.
