Dorothy "Dottie" Frisse
Alton - Dorothy (Dottie) Frisse, 84, passed away on August 27, 2023. She was the second child of seven of Aloysius "Ollie" and Helen Wardein.

She spent most of her working career as a book keeper and in her later years volunteered as a foster grandparent at St. Peter and Paul in Alton. Dottie had a great appreciation of nature and loved to travel by car through the states. Her personality was always very patient, easy going, level headed and peaceful in nature.
