 Funeral: 10 a.m. Friday in Emerald Hills Memorial Chapel. Interment: Emerald Hills Memorial Park.
 
 
 Dorothea was born March 25, 1919, in Abilene. She spent most of her life in the Fort Worth-Arlington area. She never took no for an answer and pushed ahead when others paused. But a kinder, gentler woman you will never meet again. She had a quirky personality that you will not soon forget.
 
 
 Survivors: Nephews, Lee Abrams and family of Chicago, Ill., Peter Wolkin and family of California; loyal accountant, Harry Purser; and adopted daughter, Karen Bonsall.
