It was a pleasure and honor to care for Miss Dortha! She will be greatly missed. She was definitely one of my ladies. Her and her across the hall neighbor. To this day I'll always remember her bedtime routine. As well as when she helped me sneak up behind her daughter Retha.

Like Wade, she was Dorthy to me. I have very fond memories of big "Fullerton" family dinners at her home on Cecil Street at Christmas, and sleeping on a pallet on her living room floor. Dorthy was a great cook and not afraid of experimenting with new foods, at least new to me. She gently took charge of the situation and always made us feel welcome. Her hospitality was timeless. Decades later, when Kathy, my wife and I were occasionally in Hobbs we always gravitated to Dorthy's house for meals and a place to rest. Both Kathy and I will miss her dearly.Love to all, Kathy and Dude

She was "Dorthy" (not Dortha) to me. It was many years before I knew Dortha was her real name. Her's was the first house on the way as we travelled from Saskatchewan, Canada back home to Texas/New Mexico at Christmas time. She had a special way of making us welcome, of course it helped that her and Luther had 3 kids the same age as us 3 Kerley kids. Anywhoo, we love and dearly miss ALL of our cousins, aunts, uncles, etc, etc very much, especially at times like this when we come together to celebrate a very dear one. Hmmm.....it just now seems like we're travellin' back from Hobbs to Canada. See ya later Dorthy and All, "Gotcha last, no touch back". Much LOVE to ALL, Wade and Marj
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Another branch of our family tree has broken off that once contributed directly to the health, beauty and happiness of our entire family. Finally after years of reducing our reliance upon her, she strengthens us now in only a spiritual way. I am indeed sorry I will no longer get a chance to personally visit and learn from her. She was a very special lady and I will always remember her. Dortha’s spirit lives on in many of our family members. I see her now marching, as she once did, with her sisters, Wanda (my mother), and Joyce in their own parade. It is up to us now to carry their love and spirit forward to our families.?
