Dorothy was an amazing woman who personified beauty, wisdom, charm and grace. Intelligence, wit and a zany sense of humor were also traits I enjoyed so much in our friendship.
I will sorely miss her!
Pride in her children and grandchildren was always in evidence and her love for and devotion to Denis was wonderful and inspiring to all.
I extend my dearest condolences to her family.
