My first memory of Dorothy goes back to kindergarten when I met Lorie. She was warm, kind, and loving. As Lorie and I grew up together, Dorothy became my 2nd mom. One favorite memory would be when Dorothy would have cold cuts with all the sandwich fixings set up for Lorie and I after a long night out. Dorothy even laid out our PJs. Second is staying with Dorothy in her riverside condo. We were louder than her neighbors may have preferred, but she and I would play cards until 5am. Then we would have breakfast and go to bed. I loved Dorothy.
