I still can't believe that your gone grandma. You were always such happy person and had a great personality. I'll never forget all of your jokes and staying up to play cards and games. You've been going to the state fair with us for about 10 years now and we always had a blast! We always enjoyed having you come to Minnesota for the week to spend time with us. You always pushed yourself to get better and would never give up. I'm gonna miss our talks on the phone about the latest news, and how I am going to be the president. I know you'll always be watching over me and whenever I'm stuck at anytime I'll just think "what would grandma do?". You were the best grandma anyone could've ever asked for. I will never forget about you gram, and I love you with all my heart !

My favorite memory of Dorothy would have to be when I told her I was going to Florida last year and what she wanted me to bring her back. She quickly without a step said "A Man." I brought her back a cute little seashell man. We laughed with tears in our eyes for what seemed like hours after she opened her gift. I will sadly miss you Dorothy. My prayers go out to family and friends.

~To My Mother~ ~Dorothy Helen Pollard~ I will forever cherish every day, every moment, and every breath I spent with you. That would include the 25 days spent in the hospital, along with the 19 days at the Nursing Home these past few weeks. I know you worried about me and how much time I needed to give to you, but Mom you where never a burden, it was truly a blessing, to spend the time and give the care to my beautiful, wonderful Mother. I will never regret it. The time we spent together these last few years created a beautiful relationship and solid bond between us, I am so thankful to God for this and as I know you were too. Through the highs and the lows we journeyed together. One day at a time, some crazy, some fun, some happy, some sad, and some were outright hard for me to accept. “Whatever” as you would always say, we just always kept going. I am so very proud of you Mom, you were an amazing Mother and stronger woman than I had ever realized. Mom you gave me strength, and you will always continue to give me strength. I miss you Mom so much, I love you and you’ll be FOREVER in my heart.

At my workplace, I had the pleasure of meeting Dorothy while she was working in the cafeteria. She went out of her way to ensure I got the best service possible and I had her over to my place a couple of times for dinner to show my appreciation. She was quite a joker and we had some great conversations. We all missed her when she retired, but she left some good memories behind. Thank you Dorothy!
