Dorothy E. White, 82, passed away on Sunday, May 21st, 2017 in the comfort of her home.

Mrs. White was born September 17th, 1934 in Phelps, New York. She loved dancing, reading, and pulling the occasional prank on people. Dorothy married John White, Jr. on November 2, 1954 and went on to have six sons, which at times, she had to raise on her own because Mr. White was serving our country in the U.S. Air Force.
