Josh, Your Mom always seemed such an active, busy woman even when she reached her eighties. I'm sure she will be dearly missed by many, and I imagine that you have many fond memories of life and travels with her. Sincerely, Maureen

Your mom was an important part of my life growing up. Not sure if you all remember how she had a stash of blue cheese in the kitchen cabinet and that was her treat to go to. She is the one who turned me on to it and everytime I eat it I still think of the first time she shared it with me. I am sorry for your loss but she will be remembered for many, many acts of kindness over the years. Kathy

Aunt Dorothy was always kind, very adventuresome, and fun to talk with. I'm glad I got to visit with her just weeks ago when she came to see Terri. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
