Dorothy was born on September 12, 1946 in Pinson, TN and spent her life in the Jackson, TN area. She was married to Jimmie Evans Hearn for 17 years and had three children, Melissa, Jason, and James. Her careers and occupations pale in comparison to the strength and fortitude of her spirit. Dorothy was simple in taste, peaceful in manner, and humble in heart. For many years she was active in Bemis United Methodist Church, from serving on various committees to making crocheted blankets for many of the newborns. After her retirement from Berry Plastics, she spent time with her grandchildren regularly.
Dorothy was preceded in death by her mother Martha, her father Gid, her son Jason, her brother Thomas “Pat”. She is survived by her sisters Linda (Marvin) Jones, Judy Wilson, Mary Banks, and their families. She is also survived by her children Melissa (Bryant) Haynes, James (Sarah) Hearn and three grandsons Cian, Brennan, and Everett.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that anyone that thought well of Dorothy to see their attorney of choice and put in place or update their estate plan.
