Dorothy was one of the kindest, sweetest persons that I ever met. We were stationed together at Ft. Devens, Vint Hill Farms and Augsburg, Germany together. My husband and I have fond memories of Dorothy. She will be missed. Heaven gained an angel for sure.

My dear cousin Dorothy because we are people of Faith, we know you have returned to Our Creator. That is a cause for joy but also a sense of great loss to those who are left behind. You were my remaining contact to my Fremont relatives who were no small part of my young life. I will miss our exchange of notes at Christmas. I immediately offered prayers for your soul when I read the kind note Martha wrote on Friday. May you Rest in Peace.
