My deepest condolences to your family. I am truly sorry for your loss. May the God of comfort give you peace and strength during this time of deep sorrow. (Psalm 18:6)

My heart cries now
but missing you
is nothing new
rest in peace 
Dorene

I first met Dorene when I joined a bowling league in Portland, Oregon.  I didn't know anyone, but Dorene warmly welcomed me to the group and offered me a spot on her team.  I found that was typical for Dorene.  She was very friendly and brought people together.  She was also very funny and witty, and she was a great writer.  She sent out a pre-bowl letter every week for years during league that not only served as an invitation to meet up for dinner but included her ironic and sometimes hilarious views of current news events.  Everyone in the league looked forward to it each week.  I enjoyed many talks with Dorene and I found her to be a caring person.  When she heard that my daughter was interested in becoming a librarian she offered to meet with us and discuss her background and professional life.  That was important to my daughter and we both appreciated Dorene's advice and spirit of helpfulness.  Dorene brightened my day every time that I saw her, and I will miss her.

Please accept my deepest sympathy in the loss of your daughter, sister, and Aunt.  She was loved very much by everyone.  May all the wonderful memories you shared together give you strength during this difficult time.  Love & prayers, Marcia XO
