Gary and I want to give the Sokoly Family all our prayers and thoughts of the passing of a great lady. Dorothy was a wonderful Mother role model to you Jim and Lauren. Gary was always welcomed at the Sokoly home and told how Dorothy was his second Mom. Gary apologizes for all the worry that Jim and him, made Dorothy worry about what they were doing or how long they were out. Jim was the talker and Gary("Smiley") was the listener, and the two of them got along great. Dorothy had her hands full when "the boys" were over and I give her alot of credit for having the patience. Dorothy also was a great teacher and I met her at Van Brunt Elementary/Middle School in Horicon. I started there in 1975 and believed she was a mentor to younger and greener teachers. I was one of those and followed what she had to say. Dorothy was kind, wise, strong and very humorous. I loved the way she laughed and smiled. She was the best. Many students learned the right way to do things because of her teachings. Dorothy was a "special" teacher and so was I with Art. The special teachers stayed together as a fun group and felt that what we had to do made students in need better. Dorothy will be missed by all she touched and now she is teaching and laughing in Heaven. God Bless, Gary and Renate Schaumburg
