Scope & Content
File consists of 7 cm of correspondence and an assortment of greeting cards, 21.5 x 28 cm or smaller. File pertains to personal correspondence between Dorothy and family and friends between 1979 and 1999, primarily 1995-1996.

Notes
The last folder titled "Special cards from Sheila" was originally separated from the rest of the correspondence and remains in its own folder. Sheila Iris Ritchie was Dorothy's longtime friend and housemate.
