Dorothy was an honor to be with for the last year I truly enjoyed our talks and time hanging out! Thanku for allowing me to be her caregiver

Nancy, I am so sorry to hear of your moms passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Love you!

So sorry for the loss of Dorothy. Although we knew her for only a short period, her sweet spirit shone through her journey at Tabor Hills and beyond. Our deepest condolences.
Rich and Peggy Rose

My deepest condolences to the Demkovich family! Our family Mirzalli, Emam & Helen were friends with your Grandma & Grandpa! We visited them at their home and restaurant and they also visited us at our home in Hessville. So many good memories !! Everyone grew up and moved and we out contact with each other, but so many times, thought about your Mom and your Aunt Freida! Hoping you find comfort in knowing that your Mom is now with our Lord during this difficult time!

To the Demkovich Family! Our family was very close to your grandma and grandpa when they owned their restaurant in Whiting! We loved your Mom and her sister Freida and Enver! Our Family's name was Mirzalli. We lost our Father in 1951' our Mother in 1983 and more recently (our sisters Evelyn, her daughter Karen, sister Joan and Leila! There really are NO words that are comforting at this difficult time, but want you to know that my husband passed March 3rd 2015 on his 84th Birthday! And is now with our Lord and entire family! Love. Betty (Mirzalli) Vermejan

Dear Dottie, Nancy & Diane,
I am so sad about your Mom's passing. She was sure a fighter, but just remember she is now at peace and so happy. She is surely smiling down on all of you, as she is now with your Dad and her family and ours. Just remember to be kind to one another and never lose each other. You need your sisters now more than ever! Love, Beth

To the Demkovich family may Dorothy rest in eternal peace. Although I did not know Dorothy my mother Mary Lynn (mizalli)Guzek did. She remembers the Coffee House that Zia and Ruby owned and remembers visiting them in their home upstairs. My grandparents were Emam and Helen Mirzalli. They lived in the Hessville section of Hammond. Zia Esmail is buried near my grandfather Emam in the Turkish section of the cemetery in Hammond. Since few of the Turkish men married my grandmother who was Hungarian was happy to have had a friendship with Ruby. Dorothy's sister Frieda was a friend of my aunt Joan(mirzalli)Kartz and I remember that she visited them during the 80's at their Illinois home.
With much respect, David v Guzek son or Mary Lynn Guzek who is the daughter of Emam and Helen Mirzalli.

(Nephew David Esmail.) My memories of our too infrequent childhood visits to Naperville were of visits to a warm home and an aunt who absolutely oozed sweetness. She really did make me feel welcome and like I was being taken care of. I remember my last visit with her at Nancy's and the smile on her face and the warmth and wonder of her storytelling. I remember being tickled at the time and just feeling like this is a woman who has lived a life filled with love that she created herself by loving others. My condolences to the rest of the family and her friends. I urge you all to endeavor to remember her with the honor and love that she deserves.
