Dolly's favorite job was making wreaths with brush cut by Andy.  The couple made and sold wreaths for 22 years.  They were well known in the Northeast Kingdom and the Burlington area for these beautiful Christmas creations.  After retiring, Andy and Dolly spent 3 years working at the Shadow Lake Boat Wash, where they helped to  keep Shadow the only milfoil free lake in Vermont.

Dolly was a loving soul, who never stopped caring for her family and friends.  She was known and loved by many and will be greatly missed.
