I offer my sibcere condolences to Dorothy's family and friends. I had the privilege of working with Dorothy, as well as becoming her friend. Dorothy was fiercely protective of patient rights and made every effort to give the best care decisions. She was kind, funny and respectful of all. Godspeed, Dorothy.

I never really saw much of Aunt Dorothy as an adult for myriad reasons, but I remember her fondly from my childhood. My thoughts are with Uncle Clyde and their kids at this difficult time.
