My most cherished memory of Dorothy happened when I was about 15 years old. We were at a family gathering and I wasn't feeling well. Dorothy was sitting alone on a couch. She had me come over and sit beside her and then she told me to lay down and put my head on her lap. She then gently stroked my hair and spoke softly to me. It was very relaxing and comforting. To this day I feel better when I think of Dorothy.

Dorothy is a relative by marriage. Dorothy's husband, Irvin Babcock and my mother, Edna (Love) Taylor were 1st cousins. Dorothy's daughter's, Loretta, Carole and I are 2nd cousins. Barb Szabo 2022
