Heaven has gained an angel. My nana was such an wonderful woman and so good to me, my siblings and my family. She raised three amazing women and has been such a role model for us all. I will remember all the times we spent at the cottage, every summer. I will remember staying for days or a week at a time at her apartment which was directly across from my high school. Early or late band practices or rehearsals, she was there to help me study and save me some travel time so I could have a few extra minutes of sleep. She loved all of her grandchildren so much and did whatever she could to help them. I am so thankful she was able to attend my wedding and meet her great-granddaughter.

I miss her so much. My heart aches even though I know she’s in a better place. She will be truly missed by all her friends and family.
Love you Nana, Rest In Peace xoxo

It had been awhile since I was with Dorothy but I always was impressed with her sweet, sincere and fun nature . She was obviously a good mother as witnessed by how special her daughter Michele.
My deepest sympathies.

Dear Michele, Greg and I were so sorry to hear the news about your fabulous Mom. Dorothy was a wonderful mother and grandmother - I know this because she raised you. You have been such an attentive daughter, no doubt your Mom was incredibly proud of all your accomplishments. And her kind and generous spirt lives on in you. We will see you tomorrow. Much love, Angela
