Dorothy was one of my favorite customers while I was a hairdresser. I did her hair for years and she was the light of my day. We had so much in common and she was the most sincere person. Her attitude and compassion were always so uplifting. She will be missed. Our deepest sympathy and prayers to the family. Jim & Lynda Griswold
