My aunt, Dorothy Kizer, was a lovely woman and cherished relative. I remember fondly the times I spent with her over the years - the many summers of my youth when I would walk from Granny’s house to Aunt Dorothy and Uncle Milton’s for a change of scenery and to give my grandmother a break. I loved those visits! Aunt Dorothy always welcomed me with open arms and let me hang out with her while she worked in the kitchen. She loved to bake and always had a yummy homemade treat to offer.  

Another treasured memory is when my brother, Brad, and I traveled with Aunt Dorothy, Uncle Milton, Granny, and Grandpa up to Wisconsin to visit my dad on the way back to California where Brad and I lived with my mom. It was a long journey, and along the way we saw Mount Rushmore and the Golden Gate Bridge, among other iconic sights. We also had many sandwich lunches at roadside stands along the way.  I remember being carsick and Aunt Dorothy making sure that I had a soda to drink to ease my queasiness. She was loving and patient and made sure that Brad and I were nurtured and cared for on that long road trip. 

As kind as she was to me, Aunt Dorothy was equally as kind to my children. She had a knack for always making us feel welcome and adored. She was an incredible aunt and an amazing wife, mother, and grandmother who loved her husband, sons, and grandchildren. If you were loved by my Aunt Dorothy you knew it, and you were sure to love her in return! 

I will never forget my wonderful aunt, and am so sorry that I’ll never have the opportunity to visit with her again in my lifetime. I will forever and always miss her. 

I will miss you aunt Dorthy! We will always be flood buddies.  We held each other tight and got through that hard time.  I will always remember visiting Grandpa and Granny Kizer at the lake house and having uncle Milton tell me, go get aunt Dorthy to  make you a Dr. Pepper.  I loved watching you make me a soda and giving me a delicious cookie to go with it. Ahhh! I cherish the Rabbit dolls you made me and my knitted blankets.  I was so Blessed to go to church with you and uncle Milton. More than anything I loved hearing about your traveling adventures! Your Love will always be a treasure in my chest of memories!  
         Love you always, 
                                            Sarah
