Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Dorothy. We have lost a wonderful woman. I (djf) have many, many memories of Dorothy and her kindnesses, especially to my mother, Elizabeth Cody Foss, and to my sister and me. We spent many wonderful hours in her home, and her hospitality, warmth, and deep laugh are unforgettable. Though I did not get to see her very often since I left Minnesota, I do remember those times. She was a faithful family member and, again, we express our condolences to members of her family.
