Dorothy will be missed by all. She was a very sweet lady. She lived next door to me and my family as I grew up. We are all so sad to see her gone, but she is in a much better place. I also remember Hoss, they really enjoyed their short time together. God Bless to the entire family.

Dorothy was such a good person and was particularily good to my father, Harlin Hoss. They were good about doing fun things together and enjoying each other' company. I can still see them both talking about how she was determined to learn to get the fish off the hook and was crawling around on her hands and knees chasing the fish in the bottom of the boat. Dorothy had a gentle and kind heart that made room for my dad and his family. I will greatly miss Dorothy.
