Aunt Dorothea died early this morning in Huntsville, AL. When Craig was with her yesterday, he was able to com
municate with her but her health has been in decline for months. I visit with Uncle Fred and Aunt Dorothea after Thanksgiving when she had just been released from the hospital but she was very frail even then.
Craig said there would be a small service for the immediate family sometime this week in Huntsville and then she would be buried with Uncle Fred probably on Friday. The National Cemetery at Montevallo provides space for wives with their husbands.
If you want to send Craig and Desiree a note, here is their address:
4511 Day Road SW
Decatur, AL 35603
I’m grateful for the vitality and perspective Dorothea added to the family and yes for those German chocolate cakes.
