My thoughts and memories of sweet Dorothy.  I first met Dorothy when she and Wally reached out to find Roberts’s birth siblings.  My younger brother Jerry and I [Barbara) were adopted by ourselves and Robert was adopted by Wally and Dorthy Mitchell.  I am so thankful to Wally and Dorthy for reaching out and giving of themselves and of their time to find us.  Our parents Carl and Beaulah Roberts loved Wally and Dorthy.  We met Robert for the first time at his home in Arlington, Texas.  Dorothy opened her home to our family and to so many others in her life.  She was so special to me.
Thanking God for every remembrance of her.

A little poem I wrote for my grams.
R.I.P Dorothy Jane Venable 2/28/18
Now our family has one more angel up above
and mourn the loss of another
that I would have loved to keep and hold.
After a lifetime of your love and joy,
and music to fill my ears,
you leave me with wonderful memories,
to help me through my tears.
You were very loving and kind,
And everywhere that you went,
You left a ray of sunshine there,
For anyone to find.
Everyday I had with you was precious,
And ever so grateful for the time,
But of all the grandparents in this world,
I'm so so grateful That you were mine.
Although I didn't get to say goodbye,
I know you are in a better place
Without pain and at peace.
But I just wish I could explain that to
my broken heart.
I know you wouldn't want me to cry,
but these tears are for me.
I will never forget you
and you will always have a special place
I'll hold deep within my heart.
When God looked around his kingdom,
And saw an empty place,
He looked down from heaven
And saw your tired face.
So he sent his angels down,
To carry you away on their wings,
But just know this
that in my heart,
you will forever stay.

Hi, my name is Dawn Reed. I am one of Dorothys' granddaughters. My fondest memories are of my mom, dad, my sisters and I going to see grandma and grandpa down at the lake as children. We would go outside and sit on the back porch and enjoy the beautiful lake and company. We spent many holidays down there playing on the neighbors tire swing. So many times grandma and grandpa would take us out on their sailboat.  Grandma loved playing her organ for us, that was such a treat. I loved getting letters from her as she told me all about her adventures. Many of those over the years of her coming to Branson and seeing so many shows and us getting to spend quality family time with her. We are going to miss you so much grandma but I am so Thankful and Grateful to know that you are in Heaven with Jesus and knowing mom was at Heavens gates waiting for you. We will see you soon. Love you Bunches, Dawn, Shannon and the boys....

My name is Dolly, I am a grandaughter of Dorothy. Grandma was a wonderful,  smart, beautiful  and caring person. I was amazed by her journals and letters. We would write letters to each other since I was a little girl.  She would tell me about all the goings on at the lake. The beautiful flowers growing around the lake house. Me and my family spent many vacations there. I always remember it fondly. As I grew up I enjoyed going back there with my husband Steve to spend a few days, and loved waking up visiting with Grandma over coffee at the picnic table. 
It was wonderful. I will miss her every day.  My girls, Cassie, Starr and Rhiannon  grew up loving    her also and Grandma got to know Ashton and Paisley  her great great grandchildren.  There is never enough time, but know she is in Heaven with my Mom. I love you Grandma xxxxoooo
