The family would like to extend their heartfelt appreciation to Dorothy’s caregivers for the kind, loving, and devoted care they have given her over the past few years. They would also like to thank dear friends and neighbors Jerry and Dottie Moser and Lisa and Randy McKinney for their many loving kindnesses.
