Dorothy was someone who gave her time to so many and only asked for a bit of humour in return. She will be sorely missed.

Helen and I must have known you both Bert and Dorothy for at least 43 years through Benfleet Yacht Club. During that time they would take us sailing in their cruiser and thoroughly look after us before we got our own boat.
Dorothy was a great character who would do anything for anyone and a great stalwart of Benfleet Yacht Club, where she did a lot of work behind the scenes. She will be greatly missed by us all.

Dot as I liked to call her! A lifelong, wonderful, supportive, friend and Nieghbour to my parents.

I remember great bonfire and swimming parties growing up. Where the boys lit the fireworks and the girls prepared great food. Always fun, welcoming and happy. A great loss xx
