While we did not know Dorothy except through the Torre Family we appreciate how fragile special people are not unlike the simple things around us, the birds, animals, special pets and blooms of spring and of course real and special people, friends and family!

God bless and our prayers are with Dorothy

Especially in times like these even thou one did not know your mom the mere fact how warm and wonderfully spoken for by the Torre's speaks volumes for how our ever changing times causes wonder and heartache for the honest spirit of life as with Dorothy and your mom much as that where the birds chirp, dogs bark, cats meau and flowers bloom brings on an innocence and separation from the drama of and that within our culture and changing times!

God bless your family and all who had the pleasure of being blessed by her smile!

All our sincerest best wishes
