I got to know Dorothy when I move to Evergreen Apartments. I sat next to her at bingo and had the pleasure of getting to know her. She will be missed. I know I will miss her.
LINDELL E DUHAMEL says
To: Donald, Carol, and Gloria,
Our parents are very special to us, Your Mother has lived a full life, I’m sure as a Christian she was ready for her Lord.
TO us Christmas is every day, not just two days a year.
When your Mother came to church she loved visiting with her lady friends, talking, laughing, she was a very pleasant lady.
Now Your Mom is singing with the ANGELS. Praise the LORD.
