Obituary of Dorothy M. McLaughlin

Dorothy (Dottie) McLaughlin, 85, passed away on January 31, 2017. She was married to John A. McLaughlin (deceased, 2006). Dottie and John had six children. She is survived by four of her children, eight grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. Dottie was a dedicated wife and mother but she was also an inspired writer and researcher of health and wellness information. Dementia confused her thoughts in her last years but she had a playful spirit, kind heart and consistently available smile for all of those lucky enough to be in her company. She was greatly loved and although we are sorry for our own loss, we know that she is at peace and finally able to find all her wonderful words once more. For those wishing to honor her memory, contributions can be made to St. Jude’s Hospital.
