Dorothy knew that although four wheels move the body, 2 wheels move the soul. The best days were the ones spent on a motorcycle. Come Sunday she loved nothing more than taking a ride along the Delaware River with her husband James on his Harley. And while she loved bikes, she always had an appreciation for cars as well. She was always up for watching NASCAR or Barrett-Jackson and taking in the races at Atco or Englishtown. While working for AFG Glass in Riverton, she even took as much overtime as possible so she could buy a Buick Grand National. She enjoyed the horse races, and although she had a great handicapping system, she was always preferential to horses that were the color gray. Perhaps this was just a reflection of her love of animals. A stray cat that crossed her path had just found a home. In her eyes a pet could do no wrong, even when they had chewed something in the house.rn Both Dorothy’s father and grandfather had served as chief of their fire companies. It only made sense that she took notice when introduced to a young man named James, a volunteer firefighter himself. Together, their 46 year marriage was blessed by their daughter, Donna Lee of Willingboro and their granddaughter, Stephanie Wynetti. She is also survived by her sisters: Irene of Browns Mills, Jackie of MD and Patricia of PA as well as by her nieces and nephews.rn Come celebrate Dorothy’s 68 wonderful years (May 25, 1943-Mar. 9, 2012) Monday from 7-9 PM and Tuesday from 10 AM at the Sweeney Funeral Home, Riverside, where the service will be at 11. Interment at Lakeview Memorial Park.rn

I only knew Dot for a for several years when she worked at Franklin Electronic Publishers, but with in those years she was my dear friend. We shared personal stories. Stories that would leave others speechless if they knew. We laughed and cried many times. I will always remember you Dot. Good bye my friend. Hugs.nn
