She was a member of the VFW Post 3909 in Los Molinos, and was Pocahontas of the Silver Cloud Council. Grandma loved and lived for her grandchildren. She loved to camp, hunt and fish; she spent many summers doing so with both her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was a great cook and seamstress. Grandma was also a big baseball fan, mostly the Dodgers, and when the Dodger's played the Giants or A's you were guaranteed a little excitement in the house. She was always there for her family. One nephew stated, "She was the mother I never had, when she waitressed she made sure I had a $1.00 a day for school and she taught me to bake a pie when I was 12. Aunt Dorothy was a kind and loving person." Dorothy is survived by her grandchildren, Debara and spouse Frank Kassik of Kenai Alaska; David Due Jr. of Alabama, and Donna Pacheco of Red Bluff; son-in-law of 46 years, David Due of Gerber, 6 great-grandchildren, 8 great-great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents, first husband John Drake; her 8 brothers and sisters; her daughter Barbara Due; and second husband, Robert Stanley Alford. You'll always be in our loving memories. We'll miss you grandma. Published in the Daily News from 1/21/2010 - 1/23/2010
