Our condolences to the Dill Family. Dorothy was an active participant in improving the community of Chicago Heights. Her contributions to Bloom High Schools many many committees are to be admired. She never sat back and waited for someone else to get changes started, she always moved forward. Our sympathy Barb.

Growing up in St. Mark UCC Mrs. Dill, (Dorothy as she insisted I call her once I was an adult) was a mainstay. I have many fond memories of her and husband Harry from my younger years and many proud memories as an adult of how well Dorothy represented our church in the wider church world. St. Mark, the UCC world and myself are better because of Dorothy. She will be missed.

As a former member of the Board of Directors of the South Suburban Council I worked with Dorothy for many years. She was very dedicated to the Council, and provided many ideas for fund raising, treatment programs and employee benefits. She served longer than any other board member, and resigned only after her eyesight made it difficult for her to read. She will be missed.
