So sorry to hear about Dorothy’s passing. Our sincere condolences for the entire family. Prayers for peace and comfort go out to all.
I am sorry to hear of Dorothy’s passing. We spent many years as parents helping raise funds for the teams at St. Martini and of course, cheering them on. We did Easter breakfasts during those years too. I know Dorothy’s faith was great and I’m sure she is in Heaven. We will meet again. God’s great blessings and strength to her family..
Harriet I am so sorry to hear about your Mom…but she is now in the best place ever, Heaven. I am sorry I cannot make the funeral. You are in my prayers.
See you Soon
