What a wonderful Christian woman who loved her God and family! As my second cousin, she always remembered my birthday with a card and a note. I have many good memories of her and Willard visiting our family farm. May God comfort you.
I first met Dorothy Sutter at church. She had such a friendly personality and made you feel like a long-time friend. She had a wonderful Christian spirit and had such a wonderful family. Dick and I send up our prayers for the family as they grieve her passing.
