Dorothy E. Orton, 86, passed away peacefully at her home on June 14, 2014. She loved animals, especially her two cats, Alex and Toby. Dorothy had a way about her in that she allowed herself to look at life with rose colored glasses. She was also a strong willed person, but she adored her family unconditionally. Dorothy is preceded in death by her husband Robert Orton and daughter Vickey Kimmy. Those left to cherish Dorothy's memory are her children, Sharyn (Joe) Cardinali, Deborah Lambert; grandchildren, Christopher Cardinali, Paula Hood, Robert (Alyse) Kimmy, Bill (Patty) Kimmy; and 8 great-grandchildren. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made in Dorothy's name to American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA), 424 E. 92nd St, New York, NY 10128-6804 or online at .
