Dotty was an avid Brewers, Packers and Bucks fan and could often be found cheering or yelling at the TV during their games. She also had a love for puzzles. Dotty loved caring for all people, especially children and friends. Her greatest love and passion was her family and taking care of them!
In lieu of flowers, memorials to the American Cancer Society are appreciated.
Dorothy and I met when we both belonged to Divine Peace Lutheran Church. Then we lived together at Ridgedale in Greendale and started riding to church together. We shared lots of stories and compared
our favorite hymns. We went to some church breakfasts and I got Dorothy to try the Tri Leche cake. She loved it!!! Then I was lucky when we both moved to the Village of Manor Park. We were meant to be
friends who loved the Lord and I will miss her so much. She was so blessed to have a loving family. What wonderful memories you have to cherish and share.
