Born to Harvey and Ida Dobbins in Omak, Washington and growing up in Wenatchee, Dorothy spent the last 56 years in Snohomish where she raised her family. She had a strong faith in God, attending Snohomish Seventh Day Adventist Church for many years, and encountering Him through her joyful work in her flower garden. She was defined by incredible heart, her boundless capacity for love and generosity. She will be remembered as a wonderful mother, grandmother, and woman.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Charles E. Richardson; and is survived by her children, Diana DeMarie, Chuck Dudley, Linda Bogus (Dan), and Edward Richardson (Mila); as well as numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and two great-great-grandchildren.
Donations in her name can be made to the Lupus Foundation of America, the American Heart Association, or the Arthritis Foundation.
