As a young woman, she worked for the American Display Company making life-size cutouts of movie stars for display at theaters. She then moved into retail as a sales assistant at Abraham & Strauss (A&S), an upscale department store, for the duration of her working years. After retiring, she and her husband, Harry Levy moved to New Port Richey, Florida in the mid 1980’s. Harry became ill and passed away a short time afterwards and Dot then moved to Port Charlotte, Florida to be closer to her niece Dianne.
Dot was a kind, gentle, considerate person with an amiable personality. She was a wonderful human being who never had a harsh word to say about anyone and she was always the first to offer help when anyone needed it.
While she never had any children of her own, she was a perfect Aunt to ten nieces and nephews, Great Aunt to twenty-seven and Great Great Aunt to sixteen!
“Aunt Dot” was dearly loved, as she enriched our lives and was always pleasant to be around. She was very, very special to our family and will always be remembered as the lovely, warm woman she was.
