My dear Mother never liked to leave a "stone unturned". everything had to be planned then "executed". When she turned 90 and was afraid that if she could not live alone she made it clear. "I want to stay right here until I leave feet first"...and before I ever have to go to a nursing home I will jump in front of a PAT bus" With a sneaky look she added "but I will make it look like an accident so that you can collect". She lived another six years but still kept her spunk and grit.

For those who might be late comers to this board, Dory was a poster who we will remember as one who gave of herself so others survivors might smile. She always kept this board moving with her inspirational poems, jokes and riddles. Most will give Dory credit for energizing this board. She was an inspiration to everyone on this board. In that spirit, let us
continue to post in Dory’s memory so she might smile down on us and give us the same inspiration. Therefore, we have named the board, Dory's Board, in her memory. 11/11/01 (Dory was the first to call attention to the significance of 9/11, re: WTC tragedy, i.e. 911 for emergency). Let me be the first to note all the ones in the above date, indicating she was No. 1 on our board.
