Dora was my good friend in grade school. I have many funny and crazy memories. Sorry Vicki I know we must have gotten on your nerves. As I kid I felt almost like you were my second family.
John may God Bless you and keep you in his care. My prayers are with you and your family.

It's rare in life to find a genuine smile and warm sparkling eyes to match. It's then that you know someone has touched your life. She gave us the gift of her smile and service at every visit to Omega. She will be dearly missed. My prayers are with all of you. Always love her...don't hold sadness...if she could have reached out, she would have...know that in your hearts and move forward in her spirit of kindness.

We are childhood friends of Dora from the days when we lived at the apartments on Harlem Avenue. We were so sad to hear of our old friends' passing and pray for the Chiampas family and Dora's children. We hope she is at peace now.

I went to school with Dora, both at Leigh and later to Ridgewood, she was very welcoming to me and often we sat during lunch together and hung out after school. I remember her best for her smile and warmth. I am deeply saddened to hear of this, and my prayers and thoughts are with you. David E. Martin - Chicago

Dora's spirit will be deeply missed. She was a quiet soul but her impact ran deep. I was proud and lucky to know her as my friend.
As you and the family go forward we pray that God strengthens you with his comfort and peace and surrounds James and Patricia with his presence and everlasting love.
