Obituary: Dorothy C. Williams, age 106, of Wilmington, Delaware died on , 3rd at the health care center of Methodist Country , Greenville, Delaware where she resided since of this year. Previously, Dorothy lived independently in the home she and her husband Ed built 50 years ago in Sharpley in north Wilmington. She and Ed married in 1943 at Riverside Church in New York City where Ed was stationed at Naval Training School on the campus of Columbia University. That Dorothy and Ed were able to live together by themselves independently until Eds death at age 100, and that Dorothy could continue to reside there after his passing testifies to her singular strength and courage; to an intellect that remained undiminished; and to the pluck and unconquerable spirit that resided in both Dorothy and her late husband. Born in Port Deposit, Maryland, Dorothy, known as Dot to her friends and colleagues, was the oldest of three children born to Lester and Edith Campbell. Her birth was attended by a circuit riding physician who arrived by horse and buggy during a blizzard of snow and ice. Her formal education began in a country, one-room schoolhouse. a move to Wilmington precipitated by her fathers job as an engineer with the Pennsylvania Railroad, Dorothy completed her schooling in Wilmington public schools, graduating from Wilmington High School in 1927. Upon graduation, Dorothy was hired by Krebs Pigment and Chemical of Newport, Delaware to perform secretarial and administrative work. When Krebs was bought by E.I. DuPont de Nemours in 1929, the purchase launched her career as an executive secretary with the DuPont …a career that spanned 45 years during the heyday of the companys expansion and inventiveness. There in DuPonts corporate headquarters in the DuPont and Nemours Buildings in downtown Wilmington, Dorothy rose from the secretarial pool to work as a personal executive secretary for a succession senior vice-presidents, including two men…Dr. C. Lalor Burdick and David H. Conklin…with whom she maintained close ties and friendships long after retirement, and whose wise counsel and abilities she profoundly respected and admired. Throughout her full, active and healthy life Dorothy enjoyed playing contract bridge, dancing, nights at the theatre, and travel throughout the United States and Canada. She was a stylish dresser, impeccably neat and put together from head to toe. A frequent patron of the Delaware Theatre , the Grand Opera House, and the DuPont Playhouse, she was a generous supporter of the Delaware arts community. She loved all animals it seems, but in her later years took a special interest in cats. Her last cat, Willie, a longhaired, yellowish orange hell raiser, ownership of which she reluctantly shared with her next door neighbor, remained her faithful companion for 17 years until his passing in 2014. Dorothy remained curious about the world and stayed actively engaged in life until her dying days. Her quest for knowledge was unceasing and an inspiration to many. Until very recently, she read the Delaware News Journal and the Philadelphia Inquirer from cover to cover 7 days a week. Dorothy was raised as a Presbyterian. She joined the congregation of St. Davids Episcopal Church in the 1950s and joined Grace Episcopal Church in 1965 where for almost 45 years she and Ed attended worship services with regularity and enjoyed the company of many friends. The family wishes to thank care givers, helpers and companions from Instead Senior and Your Own for assistance that allowed Dorothy to reside at home in safety and comfort these past few years. Special thanks and recognition are due Wilhelmenia Sanders and Elizabeth Rasin of Instead Senior , whose dedication and spirited service allowed Dorothy to maintain her independence, her health, and her daily routines at home. The family also wishes to thank the nurses and staff of Delaware Hospice for their support. Dorothy is survived by her son Donald Edward Williams and Donalds wife Karen Williams. Dorothy is also survived by her constant and devoted friend and companion Ann Stevens and Anns husband John, whose tender love and many kindnesses allowed Dorothy not only to enjoy life while meeting and overcoming its challenges, but also to thrive and enrich the lives of her family and her community well beyond the centennial of her birth. Friends and acquaintances are invited to Chandler , 2506 Concord Pike where a visitation will be held from 10 am to noon on , 8. Burial will be private. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests making contributions in Dorothys memory to Delaware Nature Society, P.O. Box 700, Hockessin, DE 19707 or through the Societys website, www.delawarenaturesociety.org. |
