Kathy,
I remember your Mom’s beautiful smile and personality. I am so sorry for your loss and you are in my thoughts & prayers.
Kathy,
I have fond memories of your mom as Girl Scout leader, coworker at the high school and my neighbor on Franklin Avenue. She always had a smile on her face and was just a lovely woman. I know you will miss her.
My sympathies to you. You are in my prayers.
Kathy, I very sorry for your loss. I worked with your mom at the Ellwood City School District. She was such a sweet lady. She always had such a smile. Prayers.
I want to tell you (something you probably already know) that Dorothy was a beautiful person with a wonderful heart. I knew her from my days of working at Benjamin’s Pharmacy and she always had a positive attitude that lifted those around her. I am sorry for your family’s loss. I am sure she will be missed and I hope you will cherish your memories. I know I will.
