Dear Hank Schlebaumand and family Bev and I was so sorry to hear of the death of Dorrine and we extend to you our sympathy. We loved all the times that we got to be with you at Shiloh Community Church and the times we were at your home in Ionia. My favorite thing I remember about Dorrine was that she would always would write a poem about the message that I preached on Sunday and I loved that when she would give a copy of the poem to me and I still have them.
