Dorothy's Obituary
The family settled in Chicago, IL in 1955 before moving to South Haven, MI in 1968. Dorothy was a partner in Shabazz Enterprises where she held many administrative roles including accountant, daycare principal, real estate, landlord and automotive sales. Dorothy had a passion for sewing, clothing design, theater acting and the culinary arts. She was an outstanding seamstress and cook. Dorothy would become well known for her sewing skills and would run her own upholstery business. In addition to upholstery services, she also provided catering for special events. If that were not enough Dorothy also worked in the health care industry for years as a Nursing Assistant, Hospice care, and private duty CNA. In her own right, Dorothy was a doctor, professor, accountant, chef, entrepreneur, farmer, gardener, and domestic goddess. This is evident in her children who possess the knowledge and talent she bestowed.
She has left a profound legacy that goes beyond measure and will sustain for generations to come. Dorothy will forever be cherished and deeply missed by her loving family and friends whom she continues to touch and inspire.
