Dorothy Matilda (Hartt) Okey

Aunt Dotty was the youngest of the Hartt Sisters.  From what I remember, she always seemed to have that smile on her face, even when my cousin Patrick (her son) and I were soaked with mud from our frog hunting adventures.  She and my Uncle Homer Okey married at my mom and dad's home in California.  My Uncle Homer's family came from Montrose, CO where they were pioneers in the construction business, responsible for building the first high school, courthouse, first hospital and one of several jails the community had over the years.  For more info about that Western Colorado history - click here for an article in my women's health newsletter.
