In 1942, Dorothy was in the coast guard in WWII, at the young age of eighteen years old. Dorothy and Freeman had two children, Jackie and Patty. She is survived by her youngest daughter, Patty and her husband, Robert Dye of Independence MO; son-in-law, Barry Williams and his wife, Barbara of GrainValley MO; oldest grandson, Michael and his wife, Heidi Williams of Arizona; her only granddaughter, Lisa and her husband, Raymond Summers of Lee's Summit, MO; grandson, Jason Williams and Gonzo of Arizona; youngest grandson, Rob and his wife, Anita Dye of Clay Center KS; great grandchildren are Amber and her husband, Kirt Snow, Chad and his wife, Jennie Mosbauer, Shelby and fiancé, Matt Jackson, Jeffrey, Justin, Jackie, Grant, and Allyson; and great, great grandchildren, Dreyton,Ryker,Cater and Korie. Dorothy lived an amazing 91 years here on this earth. She lived by keeping GOD first in her life. She loved to attend church, family gatherings, playing cards and scrabble. She loved to travel the world with her niece, Helen. She loved to dance and work puzzles. She loved being with her family and friends. Dorothy will be missed so very much. She brought great joy to all that knew her. We know she is dancing in HEAVEN with her loved ones that went before her. She couldn't wait to meet her mother for the first time, as her mother passed away when she was eleven months old. Life on Earth is so fleeting, take advantage of every minute of it and be kind to one another. One day we will all celebrate in HEAVEN together and oh what a joyous time we will have for eternity. We would like to thank the staff at Blue Mills Rest Home for taking such good care of her and NorthCare Hospice. If my Grandma could say one thing to all of us it would be to keep GOD first in your life and love each other.
