Todd and Denise (Peterson) Rockhill drockhill1@wi.rr.com Dear Mauer Family, My deepest sympathy goes out to your family for your loss. Although it has been many years since I've had the pleasure of spending time with Aunt Dorothy, my memories of our family trip to Idaho Falls are as fresh as if I were 9 years old again. Aunt Dorothy welcomed us with open arms and I learned then that families are still families even with so many miles between. Dorothy will be sorely missed; but I believe is sitting with the rest of the family that is just a little bit further away then Idaho Falls. I'm sure that she will welcome me with open arms when I see her again. Love, Denise
