Retired from Henkel Corporation serving many years as their office manager. Dolly was deeply loved by her children, grandchildren, family, and friends alike. She brought joy and wisdom to many lives and will be deeply missed. She passed away the weekend of her anniversary to join the love of her life, Bob, in heaven. We will miss her Irish whisper, her smart sense of humor, and most importantly, the constant loving presence she has had in all of our lives.
