    My Aunt Dorothy was one of the nicest ladies I've ever known. I have such fond memories of her, her family and her unbelievable coconut cake. I loved her very much and she will be greatly missed. She and her sisters set the standard on families living in close quarters. So proud to have had her as my sweet Aunt.
