Dorothy was a very kind and generous person, and will be deeply missed. She would always stop and say hello and chat with me at church, and loved working with the school children in the food pantry. She helped my son earn his senior service hours last year by giving him work to do in the food pantry.
With deepest sympathy,

To my dear cousins - Dorothy was one of a kind. A true servant of God, her love of family, community and her fellow man was second to
none. And a “honey” from her was one of the most comforting experiences I know. I am so sorry I cannot be there for her life celebration- our oldest son is undergoing a kidney transplant on January 10, and the doctors have advised us to remain pretty isolated until then. Love from the Swiftney branch of the clan. Hugs to all - Susan

As I was growing up,i spent alot of time with all the Raha family . Dorothy was always the nature.
She always looked after the family and friends whether a Sunday dinner or pizza party Friday for us kids . I was thinking of all the great memories we have had over the yrs. All her friends she shared her kindness with will miss her. I myself am losing a pillar in time of past. But I'll never forget all the fun we had . The memories will live on. To all the family my deepest sympathy. Hugs as Dorothy's Angel wings take her to to the end of her final journey. Love Polly Rogers Varboncoeur

Dort. was THE example of a true Christian!
Thank you for all our great conversations while we worked together at St. Mary’s. You did much to make St. Mary’s what it is today. I hope we will be together again someday.

in honor of Dorothy.

Dorothy was an amazing person. She was a great Christian and example of how one should live their life. Growing up I have many great memories of going to the family farm. There was usually a friendly family game of volleyball to take part in. I remember Dort barbecuing delicious chicken on the grill (she was a great cook). When I was in high school I worked a summer job at St. Marys doing odd jobs around the Church and school. Dorothy had a list a mile long of things for me to do. She made sure I worked hard and did good work. What I remember most about Dorothy though, was how giving and kind she was to me and everyone. Dort was probably the most giving person I ever new. She was a wonderful, kind Christian woman that had a great laugh and smile for everyone in her life. Dorothy was an inspiration to me and left such a positive affect on me and my life. Although I haven't been able to see her much in recent years, I would think of her often. You are forever in our hearts and will be missed. Love, Steve and Tina Tetlow and family
