I will forever remember her voice, her laugh, her open heart, her constant kindness to me and my mother, how she always looked like a million bucks...And above all else her spirit and spunk. My Aunt Dotty xo

Many happy memories of visiting my Aunt Dottie and Uncle Fran and their kids while growing up in Boston.

Happy I got to see her again at a family reunion when I was back there a few years ago.

My sincere condolences to all her kids, grandkids and great grandkids I know she will be missed.

My deepest wishes of love and prayers to Aunt Dottie's family. I spent lots of time with her and with my uncle Francis as a child and just a few years ago (or it SEEMS a few) visited her family while back east on business...she (and they) were warm and welcoming. I spoke to her on the phone not too long ago and we had a great visit -- lots of laughs. I will always remember her with love.
