FLORIST NOTE: PLEASE HAVE ALL FLORAL ARRANGEMENTS DELIVERED TO MARY MOTHER OF PEACE CATHOLIC CHURCH, MILLSBORO, BY FRIDAY, JULY 26, 2019, 8:30 AM.
Dorothy (Knapp) Gearhart (83), known to family and friends as Dot, passed away early the morning of June 29 2019, just days short of her 84th birthday. She is survived by her son, Christopher, and her siblings; 4 brothers and 1 sister. She is predeceased by her husband James (Jim) Gearhart and her sister Patricia (Pat) Hoskin.
Dot was always caring for others, both in her career as a nurse, as well as her hobbies once she retired; like making bibs for nursing homes until her health started to fail.
A mass in remembrance of Dot will be held on Friday, July 26th, 2019 at 9:00 AM at Mary Mother of Peace Catholic Church in Millsboro. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to your favorite charity in Dot's name.
Please sign Dot's online guestbook located on this site.
