She is also survived by 12 great grandchildren. Dorothy was born in Mills County in the small community of Ridge to Louis and Lela Atkinson on June 25, 1922 and was the youngest of six children. Her family later moved to San Saba County where she graduated from high school at Richland Springs, Texas. After graduating, she attended and graduated from Business College in Brownwood, Texas. It was there she met her husband Clay, who was in the Air Force stationed at Camp Bowie. They were married November 18, 1945 in Kansas City, Missouri.

While living in Del Rio she was an active member of the Central Church of Christ and later in San Angelo the Northside Church of Christ. After her retirement, she returned to San Angelo to be closer to her children and was currently residing at the St. Angelus Assisted Living facility. Funeral service will be held at 2:00 P.M.
