Date of Birth: August 15, 1947
Date of Death: March 31, 2024
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dorothy Scheidt. She will be greatly missed and forever loved by her husband, Robert, and their three children, Trevor, Heather and Garner.
Dorothy was truly amazing and was adored by everyone who knew her; she was like no other they’d ever met. Dorothy’s accomplishments and talents were too many to list, not to mention the hardest worker any of us have ever known; she never stopped. Life for her really began when she met her husband. Robert and Dorothy fell in love and were married Sept. 30, 1972. Their love only grew stronger as the years went on. Together they built a life and a business that was a true partnership which would span over five decades. Farm life was all she knew, but Dorothy’s greatest love was that of her family, which she showed in every way she could. Cooking, baking and canning like few others could, quilting, sewing, and making the family home beautiful, Dorothy could do it all. Faced with many physical and health challenges over the years, we saw her determination to keep going; she didn’t want to leave us.
Sadly, on the evening of Sunday, March 31, 2024, after still being able to make us laugh, Dorothy left us peacefully and quietly after saying goodnight to her family. She left us with countless happy memories and the solace in knowing that she is at rest. We love you!
At Dorothy’s request, there will be no public service.
Arrangements were entrusted to Matthews Funeral Home, Melville.
