Please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Aunt Dort was a very special woman to a lot of people and we will miss her dearly. She will always have a special place in my heart. We have a lifetime of memories from recipes, swimming, family picnics and her wonderful Fried Chicken.
I am so glad I was able to spend some time with her recently.
My last words to her were I love you.
Rest in Peace Aunt Dort-I love you!

Fond Memories
I have many fond childhood memories of your mom. All those Sunday School picnics down in your meadow, strawberries and home-made ice cream. I'll always remember those Minstreal shows-especially the year our moms were 20's flappers. They even took their show to the Holloween parades and won a prise. Our moms knew how to work har and how to have fun. May your memories gie you comfort. Les and Bonnie
Sherry and Terry, Bill, Lori,
Sherry and Terry, Bill, Lori, Dana and family, Just a few lines to let you know you are in our thoughts and prayers. So thankful death doesn't take away our memories and I have a lot, when "The" girls would come to your house and "Dort" treated all of us like we were her teenagers! Several times seeing her over the years she took the time to speak and always had concern for others. She is in heaven now with your Dad. We are praying that the love of our God, your family and many friends will give you strength, comfort and peace in the weeks and months ahead. Please know how deeply we care. With Love, Kenny and Cheryl
