Dorothy Jacobs was everybody's "Aunt Dodee" ! this angel-on-earth raised my mother (Pauline), then helped raise me, then helped raise my children, AND then their children ! There was no end to the kindness and compassion this woman passed down to the generations of my family. She was loved by one and all, and will be sadly missed by many..., including my self as much as any. I can only hope to be lucky enough to be reunited with my Aunt Dodee after my passing. She's made this miserable world a much better place for all of us to live in. The holidays will never be the same without you in them, the magic will forever be gone. I will always have the fond memories of this loving lady sharing my early music years..., and even before that when she used to take me to Cedar Point as a youngin', long before the Raptur or the Iron Dragon was ever thought of. Aunt Dodee, I think of you daily, I miss you and I'm sure heaven is a far better place with you in it. I can't thank you enough for all you have done for me and for my family. I will always love you, rest peacefully, Vic.

Dear Aunt Dodee,
I sure do miss you. I miss the good ol' days when we used to go fishing. You were some fisherman! And spending time at Toledo Beach with you was so much fun. We had a lot of good times and I'm so glad I was able to have you in my life. I'm sure you already know, but I talk to you every day.. say good morning and goodnight. I wish you were here to say it back though. I miss you. And I love you. Rest peacefully in heaven. And try to behave yourself ;)
Love you, Aunt

Dear Aunt Dodee,
I miss you very much. I miss your hugs and smiles. I miss your laugh. I miss standing by your chair and showing you my fancy dresses that you loved. And twirling around in them for you. I love you forever. And I'll always be your little jellybean.

Love Tony Jeakle II

Dodee, I can't express how very much I miss you. How much we all miss you. You have made such a tremendous impact on the lives of so many. And because of you, we are all better people for it. Your no nonsense, yet loving and compassionate way of treating those around you have helped us all learn not only how to treat one another but also how to have a better appreciation for life in general. Thank you for everything you've done for me and my family and for raising me the way you did. Your sense of humor was the best. If it wasn't for you, I would've never known what a davenport or an icebox were ;) You were always such a wonderful, loving, generous, funny, compassionate woman. I can't thank you enough for being there for me. And I thank God that I was blessed to have you in my life. Especially for such a long time. I thank God that we were able to have you be such a big part of my family's life. Jada, Lil' Tony, and Emi (your little jellybean) absolutely adored their Aunt Dodee. Tony and I did too. We love you to the moon and back. It will never be the same without you. I hope you've finally found the peace that you deserve. That and the good lookin' rich man that was going to come kidnap you (even though you said you would willingly go with him) and take you on an Alaskan cruise. You were a phenomenal lady. And Heaven is a much better place for having you now. Thank you… for everything. Thank you for leaving me with a lifetime of wonderful memories. Goodnight, Dodee, I love you. Love you always, Kallie (Ki-Ki)
