She has kept her children very close! Right across the street close!! She never met a stranger. All of our friends became like children of her own.

Dorinda supported her family 100% in everything they did. Masonic Order, Traveling, Bowling, Cheerleading, Football AND raising children!!

Dorinda inspired all her family to be strong, independent and resilient in their everyday lives. To keep the faith and to always trust in God.

Crystal and Candace are going to miss FaceTiming her all day every day. Her grands are going to miss taking the things she needed because their legs were younger.  Her grands are going to miss playing with her, watching the iPad with her, and just helping to take care of her daily. Stephine, we know is going to miss cooking for Dorinda. Mommy loved her cooking especially her salmon. We will all miss her cheering for us.
