Dorothy Stohl married Lyle Murphy in 1944. They moved from WI to Mpls, and were blessed with 5 children. Lyle died in 1965, but Dorothy forged on, and raised her children with love and fortitude. She married Jim Cashman in 1970. Photo albums lined their bookshelves reflecting family moments and their worldwide travels. Dorothy’s green thumb resulted in a glorious garden. She was active in her church & the local historical society. She delivered Meals on Wheels until age 95. Her needlework was exquisite, and hospitals were grateful for her knitted baby caps. We miss her warm generosity, sunny disposition & unequivocal love. A funeral service is postponed due to Covid-19.
