Dorothy M. Bush, 77, died Thursday, May 22, 2014 at New Horizons Care Center. She will be greatly missed.

Dorothy was born in St. Paul, Minnesota on August 4, 1936, the daughter of Cy and Bessie Lape and the youngest of 3 children. She married Harvey Bush on December 30, 1961, who preceded her in death in 1984. Of this marriage five children were born.

Dorothy attended high school in St. Paul, MN and earned her degree in Education from St. Catherine's University in 1959. She then moved Lovell to teach Spanish and English at the middle school. She took a break from teaching to raise five children, working as a substitute teacher when needed. She then went back to full-time teaching English at Lovell High in 1983.
