Dear Family of Dorothy Thompson, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your loved one, Dorothy. She was such a sweet woman who I spoke with when I would go over to her farm and get eggs. She was a Gem to speak with and I always enjoyed our conversations at her kitchen table, no matter how long or brief they were. I am so glad to have had the pleasure of meeting her! I'm sure she will be sorely missed by all. May God Bless you during this sad time.. My heartfelt condolences,
Diane Scott. Freeport, Pa.
