Bonnie I want to offer you and Claude as well as Sean, Adam and the rest of your family my sincere support and condolences for the death of your Mom. She was a great lady.

My sincerest condolences for the loss of your precious mom/grandma. Dorothy was a good, kind, sweet lady who warmed everyone's hearts. I thought the world of her. I so enjoyed our conversations about her life in the olden days and her childhood growing up with her brothers. She also spoke with great love about her grandchildren and children, singing their praises. I will miss these most interesting conversations. She was of strong faith. She has been welcomed home to our Lord with open arms where she is with her loved ones who have passed. Take comfort in the fact she is embarking on a new life & adventure with our Lord.
Sending our most sincere and heartfelt condolences to all of Aunt Dorothy‘s family. She was just a wonderful, kind and considerate person. And everyone enjoyed being in her company.
It has been a long time since I have seen Aunt Dorothy, but we did exchange notes every Christmas. The thing I remember best about her is her wonderful smile. I really enjoyed reading her book "the Early Years from 1928 to 1960" and learned a lot about her (and my dad!) that I didn't know. My thoughts are with all of her family.
Bonnie and family: I remember your Mom fondly from many years ago. She was a lovely lady. Our sincere condolences.

You'll always remember how it felt to laugh with your Momma / grandma and to be loved by her. May those memories bring you comfort during this time of loss. Grief is just love with no place to go. Holding you all in my heart.
