We are so sorry for your loss and so sorry we missed the funeral service. We had surgery this morning and could not come. Please know that we loved Dorothy and will miss her even though we have not been in contact for a while now. John and Donna Fish I remember when Dorothy would take my son, Larry from the nursery at church and bring him to the church service. He was so good for her and so bad for me when I brought him. She was a great person.
