I met Dorothy Corlett when I was a young girl visiting my grandparents in Tulsa. Dorothy really impressed me even though I was not very old. I was first struck by her happy nature and joyful laugh. I just liked being around her. She was the cousin of my mother’s best friend and my namesake, Louise Sortore. I would see her now and then while spending the summers in Tulsa. She would tell wonderful stories about my mother, Lucille Barber, and Louise. Mother and Louise obviously were fun-loving teenagers, and Dorothy never missed telling me the details of their adventures. She had a way with storytelling, and we would laugh uncontrollably at some of her descriptions of Mother and Louise’s shenanigans. She definitely had the gift of gab and a marvelous sense of humor. I am so glad I did not lose touch with Dorothy and was able to visit with her, her daughter Janie and Janie’s husband Paul a few years ago. Hearing her voice always raised my spirits. She was just one of those gifted and loving persons so full of life. I treasure my memories of her. I know she will be missed by her family and so many friends.

Grandma Dorothy was my Son in Law John's Grandmother. He always told me the best stories of Grandma Dorothy when he was growing up. Her and Grandpa George spent lots of time with their Grandchildern. I got the pleasure of meeting her and spending time with her . We would go for lunch and her quick wit was unbelievable. She will be missed but what great memories she gave. My condolences to your family Grandma Dorothy. Love you, Debbie
