She lived her married life as a farmer's wife, devoted mother, and friend. She was also a hairdresser, and worked at VON which was her passion. Dorothy accepted Jesus Christ as her Saviour in 1979. She lived her life loving her family and friends, and dedicated to God. She loved her family and was an inspiration to everyone she met. Dorothy was always happy and smiling until the end.
