Dorothy, was such a lovely, compassionate person who we



enjoyed seeing at Steak N Brew We purchased our place on Upper chase lake 11 years ago and Steak and Brew was our first restaurant that we went to and Dorothy, was our waitress after that night. We asked for Dorothy every time we went to Steak Brew She always had a smile on her face and was so happy to see us. Dorothy will truly be missed.
We love you Dorothy.
