Dora was my mother's (Vivian Starr-Bogart) best friend since they were both 12. They were in girl scouts together and shared in all of each others happy and sad times. They shared their weddings, birth of their children,births of their grandchildren, deaths of their husbands and Rita. Losing Dora is like letting go of the last link I had with my mom. I loved her dearly and will miss her greatly. Please know I am here for you as you were with me when I lost my mother 4 1/2 years ago. May she rest in peace.
