So sorry to hear of Dorothy's passing. She was a wonderful neighbour ,full of fun , stories and cups of tea. Even when she moved to her little flat I would see her as I ether started or finished work at the Primary School and she would wave out a cheery hello. Will be greatly missed by both Alida and Phil P

I'll never forget how Dorothy invited me for meals and to stay weekends when I was posted to teach at Lake Coleridge school in 1969. She made a very naive, city girl feel so welcome. Years later she invited my sons to enjoy stays in the country. Such a generous friend who always kept in touch. Will be greatly missed.
