“Dorothy was ALWAYS like a second mom to me. I went on vacations with her, Tom and Eddie. Sometimes with Ed’s cousins. I love Dorothy soooo much. I spoke about her a lot to my coworkers. They felt like they new her when I told them she passed away. I got my silliness from her. I’m blessed that both of my children were able to meet her. Rest in peace Dorothy. I know I gained another Angel. I love you and I’ll see you again when God calls me home. ❤️”

Debbie Heinrich wrote a sympathy message

“Growing up in our neighborhood was like being on our own little island. Everyone looked out for each other's kids, and we kids felt safe and loved. In those days, moms were mostly stay-at-home. In the summer, Dorothy always made sure we had something fun to do or somewhere interesting to go. I have so many great memories. She was such a happy person, you couldn't help but be happy when you were around her!”
