I absolutely loved caring for Dorothy and talking to her. I enjoyed her spunk. She loved her family with her whole heart. Kristen, she always praised you & Kile for being such wonderful parents of Jacob.
 I’m sorry I won’t be able to come to her service. You will all be in my thoughts & prayers.
Sincerely, 
Tracy Kready
