Dorothy was a loving, supportive and devoted wife to Freddie for over 65 years. They were best friends. She and Freddie ran a successful farming operation of several acres of row crops and pasture for livestock of all kinds. Dorothy managed the book work as well as handled the dairy operation. She planted gardens large enough to raise fruits and vegetables for the whole year for their family. She was an excellent cook and baker and talented seamstress. She made more dresses than a person could count as well as several of her daughter's wedding dresses and bridesmaid dresses. As the girls were growing up and having children, family get togethers were very important to Dorothy. She loved seeing the kids, grandkids, and great grandkids enjoy food, fellowship and fun together. It was a joyous occasion having all 71 of the family together. Dorothy's faith was center in her life. She and Freddie never missed a Sunday of going to church and worshipping with the family. She was a wonderful role model of good work ethic, putting God first in your life and strong moral values. Dorothy also enjoyed Bowling on a ladies team with her close friends. She and Freddie liked traveling with family and friends and were lucky enough to get to do this while their health was good. She will be remembered as a blessing and a gift to her family who loved her. We celebrate her life here and into eternal life with our Heavenly Father.
