Dorothy was a cherished friend who was a dear “Gramma Van” to our sons, Garren and Dainen. She and Van spent many hours with us going to restaurants and playing cards at their home or ours.
Although we were able to travel down to Oklahoma to be with her when Van died, we are unable to do so now. But our hearts are with her children as they celebrate Dorothy’s life. Our love to you all.
