Barb Luetke sent this in a letter to Penn Valley Meeting dated March 6, 2015:

I have many sweet memories of Dorothy, who was a fairly regular attender to Penn Valley Meeting in the days when the Luetke-Stahlman family lived in Olathe and were (for the most part) members. I think of her as a quiet woman who was always kind to me and those in my family. I was inspired that she, Rachel, and Matthew walked to Meeting. 

What I've been thinking about these last few weeks and what I will miss the most about my grandmother is the conversations we’d have late at night after everyone had gone to sleep. She'd ask about things in my life and it would remind her of stories from her life. Like someone said, she was loyal. There was something touching and loving about how passionate she'd become in defending family or friends whenever she told stories of times they'd been treated unfairly. Another thing is more than most people I know she was interested in hearing about the little details of day to day life some people wouldn't be interested in. Lastly her sense of humor. She laughed a lot and every day I come across things I know she would have thought were hilarious. My grandmother's effect on my life is incalculable and I could probably go on forever thinking of all the stories and the constant feeling of love and support, but what I think I'll remember most about her is having hour long conversations, late at night, long after it was time for bed,

There were 4 children in my family. When I was 4 years old Dorothy was 16. One time when we were playing hide ‘n seek she lifted me up and removed one of the ceiling tiles put me up in there and put the tile back. Then our parents came home and I was up there wondering what would happen? Would she tell our parents so they would rescue me and we’d both be in big trouble? Or would she come rescue me herself? Finally I heard a tapping. She sneaks me out and we get away with it and it was our secret for life.
