I've known Dora for almost 40 years. She had a beautiful mind and more importantly a beautiful soul. They say to know one life has breathed easier because you have lived, this is to have succeeded. Dora Mabel Krachey was a very successful person.
My condolences to the family. But what an inspiration to everyone she has been. There are very few people that can say they have completed a technical masters at the age of 75. Along with being the matriarch of a crazy and fun loving family. My thoughts and wishes for peace and comfort go out to everyone at this time of loss.
Praying for peace and comfort.
I am sorry to learn that Dora has passed. I am grateful for the 2 fun days we spent with Dora and Linda at Ardies' last summer sharing memories. Dora was constantly pursuing new skills and opportunities, while always surrounded and supported by her family. We pass along our best wishes for her family and friends during this sad time, yet knowing Dora had along, fun, and fruitful life.
I am sorry we will not be able to attend her services.
