I have fond memories of Dora and her hospitality. She always had a smile and enjoyed cooking for others. She gave many years of service to our church I am blessed to have known her.

We are saddened to hear about Dora's death. She was a person we all admired and, for as long as she was able, was a valuable part of our church family.
