Dorotha Rash Obituary

Our beloved Dorotha moved on to heaven on May 5, 2015. She was born July 25, 1918 in Richmond, Indiana. Dorotha brought many people joy over the years and she will always be remembered as a person who lived life honestly and without regrets. She made you want to experience more in life than you already had. In her younger days she was a "Motorcycle Mama" and we have pictures of her wearing her leather helmet, knickers, and boots to prove it. She was married to Grant Rash for 52 years. He proceeded her in death May 12, 1999. She is survived by her son Michael Rash and his wife Susan; Grandson Jordan Rash, his wife Stephanie, and their sons Joseph and Samuel; Granddaughter Melissa Rash and her son Aleksander; Granddaughter Meredith Rash and her daughter to be born very soon. Dorotha was a faithful member of Kingwood Baptist Church. A memorial service will be held there Friday, May 15, at 2pm.
