Sincere condolences to family. I was a Catechist and Lector along with Dorothy and always enjoyed talking with her and just joking. She was filled with quiet strength and Fr Gary shared her farewell to her Church family. May she rest in peace knowing how loved and appreciated she was.

Tom, Mary, Nicole and Natalie, and Patty and Henry and your family, I am so sorry to hear about Dorothy. I always enjoyed when we got together. She fought her battle long and strong, yet through it all, was always thinking of others. I will miss her.
