Afterward, she enjoyed a year of youthful, renewed health, before dying of complications the following year. She had remained in brother Harold's household until her death, Ruth's close friend and a beloved aunt to their children Carolyn, Barbara and Kathie, as well as Dorothy's other nieces and nephews. In spite of personal heartaches and challenges, Dorothy was a courageous woman with a rich zest for life, an easy smile, unending sense of humor, loyalty and devotion to those she loved, and to those who loved her.
