Dorothy was a loving mother and friend to many. She was a Charter Member of Glenstone Baptist Church and attended faithfully as her health permitted. She loved a good game of cards, fishing for crappie and always loved a good clean joke. Her love of family was evident in every circumstance.
A special thank you is extended to her long time neighbors, friends and caregivers Wally and Hazel Bukalski; Dr. Kelly Trygg and nurse Joelene for their compassionate care.
