Dorothy was retired from Family Dollar of Longview, TX where she made many friends.  She loved working in her yard and planting flowers.  Her dogs were her pride and joy.  Dorothy loved to eat out and IHOP was her favorite where her favorite waitress, Sally, would have a little doggie bag ready for Tiny, Dorothy’s pet.

Shopping was another fun past time for her as well as dressing up as she was a gorgeous lady.  She loved dancing the jitterbug and singing to her favorite singer, Elvis.  Dorothy was a faithful Trump supporter as she always had Fox on to watch him.  She was loved by many and will be dearly missed.  Dorothy’s faith in Jesus Christ has secured her eternity.
