Cousin Dorrie was always so positive and upbeat. Even with all her health problems she never let it stop her from enjoying family and things she loved. She was a great help to her Cousin Mary during her final months of life. Dorrie was always willing to help and lend a hand. She was very funny and enjoyed life to the fullest. I will miss her and all her funny texts. Rest in peace cousin until we meet again. Love Laura Wilson
