Our loving mother and grandmother and aunt, Dorothy H. Mortimer, age 89, passed away peacefully on January 24 th in Tucson, Arizona. She was born March 4, 1926 in Clinton, Massachusetts to Fred and Esther Heinold, the oldest of 4 daughters.

Dorothy was a strong willed lady who took pride in her family and all that she did. She remained true to her name, a gift of God, a vision. Her beauty emanated inside and out. Dorothy will be remembered as a caring mother, sister, grandmother, aunt and friend. Her kindness, laughter and generous spirit were truly a blessing in our lives. It gives us great comfort to know that she is at peace and reunited with her late husband as she missed him dearly. She will be deeply missed but the memories we have will be forever cherished and held in our hearts.
