Dorothy was a great friend and neighbor. She also was a proud Mom and Grandma. We will miss her quick wit, her smile and always her "two cents worth". While thinking about her, there is so much we will miss….talking about the latest books being read she always was reading 2 or 3 books at a time, crossword puzzles, quilts, lunch at LSB, cinnamon rolls that we were always receiving, and most important "4:30 happy hour!!!!
