I was so saddened to hear of the passing of Dorothy Gardner today as I was scheduling a presentation for Area Agency on Aging at the Senior Center.  Dorothy gave me my very first presentation opportunity last year and invited me to the ice cream social later in the year!  She was a fabulous lady who I'm sure touched many many hearts such as mine.  My thoughts and prayers are with her family & friends.  God bless.

My sympathies to Dorothy's family. It's been many years, but I remember her from the church ladies circle get togethers at Christmas time with my late wife, Twila and her mom, Elva Slensby & Elva's sister Birdie Weymouth among others.
