She married her life partner Junior Jay Taylor on December 1st , 1945 and became a housewife and mother of two.
Dorothy was loved by many and known to most as Grammy, a caring supportive loving person who listened and understood your side of things. She took pride in her home and family. Whenever possible you could find her working hard in her yard. Grammy welcomed company; her eyes lit up with Joy when you’d come to visit. She’d enjoy telling stories of her memories of different experiences throughout her life or just casual conversation of day-to-day occurrences. Words cannot express what joy and love she brought to our lives. She will be and already is missed. If they could it would be a mile long book. She will forever be in our hearts as we continue on with our lives.
She is survived by her grandson, Travis Oliver (Melissa Lockhart), Great grandchildren Cherity Lockhart (Anthony), Kayla Oliver, and Justice Oliver. Also survived by her great great granddaughter Dahlia Campbell
She is preceded in death by her husband, daughters; Karen (Joel) Allred and Khristie Bennett. She is also preceded in death by a brother Don Duke and her parents Allen and Rose Duke.
