"My sympathies to Dorothy's family. She was always so kind.
I enjoyed her quick wit and patient demeanor.
Time cannot erase pleasured memories.

My best to Judy and Eldon, "Billy"... as Gary would say."

"I will always carry with me every day spent with my grandmother. She showed me that no matter what there is always room for one more and that you get more out of giving than taking. She never asked me to be anything more than what I was but always believed I could be anything. If I ever had a problem I knew I could talk to her and that she would know just what to say because she had been thru it all and came out stronger each time. Some of my best and fondest memories are of sitting around her table playing cards or her walking with me to school. She spent endless hours driving me back and forth to auditions and spent even more hours in little cramped rooms waiting for our turn. She always did it with a smile even though I knew it couldn't have been fun all that mattered to her was that she was helping family. I could go on and on because every single day she made a difference in my life and even though she has passed she will continue to because the time we shared and the lessons I learned will always be with me and give me comfort and strength when I need it. I will always love you grandma Dorothy, thank you for everything."
