I have many wonderful memories of Dolly Blumling. I grew up with being best friends with her daughter Diane and have the most precious memories of going to our camps in the mountains of Tionesta Pa. and eating Dolly's delicious chicken cacciatore and other homemade meals. Dolly Blumling was always kind and gracious to me and I think she was happy that her Diane and I were reunited and found one another through social media. She kept an immaculate home and was a wonderful cook. I always felt welcome there and at the camp. It is wonderful to have many great memories of Dolly and her family, even with her passing. My heart goes out to all of her family and dear friends. May she rest in peace that is so well deserved.
