Obituary of Dorothy Rose Reese

Dorothy Rose Miles Reese May 2, 1931 – July 16, 2010 Dorothy Dottie Reese passed peacefully with her family by her side. She was born and raised in Oxford, England, where she was a registered nurse. She married Marvin Reese in April 1959 and came to the United States where she became a US Citizen and continued her work with health care. She was a gentle, loving and caring lady. Her great love of animals was only exceeded by the unconditional love she had for her family. She enjoyed playing darts and started the Willamette Valley Dart League in the 1970's. She also loved to knit baby clothes and made many special outfits for family and friends. Dottie will be greatly missed by her 6 children, Linda, Wayne, Andrew, Glynn, Jane and Cheryl, 15 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren. A memorial service will be held on August 1 at 1:00, Hathaway Park, 799 25th St, Washougal, WA. Straub's Funeral Home & Columbia River Cremation in Camas was in charge of the arrangements.
