Dorothy was married to Martin Fromm for 58 years.

She was an important partner to Martin when he started Martin Fromm & Associates, working there full time at the start and staying involved until he retired. Martin often said he could not have been successful without her at his side.

Dorothy was passionate about her family and accomplished at bridge, knitting and needle pointing. In fact, many of her friends and family have clothes she knitted for them. She also enjoyed travelling the world with Martin. There were few countries that hadn’t been visited by the time they stopped travelling. Dorothy especially enjoyed being a hostess to her family and friends.

In addition to her husband, Martin, Dorothy was preceded in death by her parents, Harry and Eva Lindauer.

She is survived by her son Bill and his wife Jackie, daughter Barbara and her fiancé, David Hausen; grandchildren Jeff, Andy, Dan, Paige, Ross, Marti, Julie and Eddie; and 11 great-grandchildren.
