MAY THE GOOD LORD WRAP HIS LOVING AND COMFORTINGARMS AROUND DOROTHYS FAMILY.
Dear Trumm family,
I’m so sorry to hear about Dorothy’s passing. She was an extraordinary woman, beautiful on the inside and outside. And I’m sure she would edit this post if she could. The community mourns with you.
My deepest sympathies.
Sincerely,
Carrie Carlson
Condolences to the Trumm family in this time of sorrow.
It brings back many happy memories of all of each of the members of the Trumm family. We had joy when the family moved kitty-corner from Mom and Dad’s. Bob and Dorothy were good and solid members of the community with the drug store and with Dorothy teaching high school English. Lastly, it was a joy when I heard Todd and his family moving back into his childhood home.
May God bless you and comfort you in this difficult time.
The Halling family
Dorothy was my mentor plus my teacher. I was the babysitter for their three children until I went to nursing school.
She taught me to believe in myself, others and that there was life beyond high school peer pressure. I was able to refocus and know that my high school years were also a way to get an excellent education and preparation for next steps. I did become a nurse and have been for 49 years, and I did marry my college boyfriend, Ken Engelhart who became a physician. We have 3 adult children, 2 daughters in laws and a son in-law and four grandchildren. Although I live in Minneapolis and will not be able to make the funeral. I was planning to visit Dorothy this spring when I come to Sioux Falls. I want her family to know how much she meant to me and how I was able to believe in myself and have more compassion for others by her leading example.
Warmest condolences to the family. Mrs Trumm was always a kind and patient person and teacher to many.
God Bless
