Dorothy was like a second mom to me growing up as she was always there when I spent time in the hospitals in the cities. She will be remembered fondly and often by me and my family.
We regret that we are unable to attend her funeral but would like to extend our best wishes to the family. (my cousins) and their familes. Brian and Kelly Haugrud

Choir practice at Dorothy and Jarle's house was one of the highlights of my dad's (Stan Axtell) week. Her desire to serve the Lord thru music and her love for people are imbedded in my memory of her. Truly a life well lived and a wonderful legacy to her family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Harold and the entire Leirfallom family. Dorothy was a FANTASTIC Lady!! When ever I went over to their house to see her son Jarl Dorothy always made me sit down and eat some wonderful treat that she had made; we shared some great times in her kitchen, I will miss her. Lord knows that this world needs more Dorothys'!!!!
