Dorothy Rae Schenk, better known as Dottie, lost her battle with cancer
on Feb. 26, 2023, in Kingman, Arizona and is at peace with the Lord.

Her family and friends, especially her four children, came together to
care for her during her final weeks. She was born on Nov. 5, 1939 in Los
Angeles, California. She grew up in Baldwin Park with her two sisters,
and finally settled in Bellflower, California to raise her four
children. After retiring, Dottie moved to Bullhead City, Arizona, and
then later to Kingman, Arizona with her sister Pat.

Dottie was selfless, caring and loving. She had a wonderful sense of
humor and a work ethic like no other.

After retiring as a retail clerk, she continued working in Arizona in
banquets, volunteered at the Mission, worked the Snack Shack at the ball
field and spent time traveling with her family and visiting with
friends.

She is survived by her four children and their spouses – Dan and Angie,
Jane and Kenny, David and Judy, Rick and Dawn – and her sister Pat, and
many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephew, and friends
and neighbors.

Special thanks to the compassionate staff at The Cancer Center, Living
Waters Hospice and Sutton Memorial Funeral Home for all their guidance,
care and understanding during this difficult time.

Although Dottie requested no services, her family is planning a
Celebration of Life to honor her in August. A date will be determined
and made available to those who would like to join us in her
celebration.




Note: These obituaries are transcribed as published and are submitted by volunteers who have no connection to the families. They do not write the obituaries and have no further information other than what is posted within the obituaries. We do not do personal research. For this you would have to find a volunteer who does this or hire a professional researcher.
