One of the best women I ever had the privilege of knowing. My mom’s best friend and nextdoor neighbor when I was growing up. I will forever be amazed by her kindness, generosity, selflessness, her joy and her beautiful smile. Having a large family herself it’s hard to imagine how she could have had time for others, but she did, and still successfully raised a family of her own of beautiful people who, I’m sure, carries her legacy on. The world is surely a better place having had her in it. I’m so thankful I knew her when growing up. I’m praying for you all in this time and so sorry for your loss.
I see her resting in the arms of Jesus as I write this. I pray, blessings and comfort for the family and knowing this as well.
Kurt and Cindy
Sincere sympathy to you and your family in the loss of your Mother. Think of you two often.
In Christian friendship, Pete and Jo

I know Grandma Boehm is rejoicing with Jesus. I’ll never forget her big smile & how loved and welcomed she made everyone feel. She loved her family extra big and will be missed by so many. Thinking of her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
Aunt Dorothy was such a kind soul.. I married into the Miller family in 1982.. she helped in surprising me with a bridal shower at her home .. I remember so clearly as I was told it was a family reunion.. brought my softball glove and all🙂
To all of her loved ones.. I’m so sorry for your loss but I know in my heart she is resting peacefully in heaven with her hubby ♥️
God knew what he was doing when he placed Dorothy in my families life. My sister was special needs and Dorothy was there in a drop of a hat to help. I remembering how much fun I had when she babysat us and how she never forgot a birthday. She was always there when there was an emergency in our home and the kindness she always showed. She allowed my
Dad to use part of her families land so he could do what he loves and feed his family. Believe it or not I still remember her laugh. I believe I could write a book on this amazing woman and the legacy she left here on earth but It is not needed because I know her family is a reflection of her love and kindness. She was angel on earth. Love to all of you!
I worked at the nursing home where Dorothy resided. Dorothy was a wonderful woman she loved bingo and music. My thoughts and prayers are with the Boehm family and friends. She will be missed
I work in activities at the nursing home that Dorothy resided at. She was a very kind woman. Very sweet. Had a good sense of humor. She will be deeply missed. My condolences to Marilyn, Milton, and the rest of the family. Dorothy is in a better place and at peace. May her memory be a blessing. May she rest in peace. So long Dorothy.
