Karen, so sorry to hear about Dottie. I remember the fun we had together going to water aerobics at the Lockport Park District. She was and will always be one of my favorite people. You have my deepest sympathy.

What a wonderful lady! Our deepest sympathy to the family. May all the memories of her wonderful smile stay close to you during this difficult time. I still remember days of when I was young going to their house with my parents for various things.

She was an awesome mother n law. I enjoyed the time I spent with her. I talked to Alan a couple months ago and asked how his mom was doing. He said the same. I know she will be missed by a lot by family and friends.

I am so sorry I never met Dorothy, nor anyone from her family, but I remember my Grandmother, Clara Rohder Langer mentioning Mary Lingin. She would always comment on the wonderful sewing notions store she had, and the fact that you could get anything you wanted there. I believe the store was across the street from the five and dime. To Dorothy's family I would like to express my sorrow for your loss, but also my thanks for adding so much to Lemont's history.
