She now dances in the arms of the Lord. Dorothy Mae [Jordan] Dobry was born on November 5, 1923 near Duncan Oklahoma to Joseph Alexander Jordan and Hester Florence [Dunham] Jordan. She departed this life peacefully on February 18, 2015. She attended boarding school at St. Joseph's Academy in Chickasha and graduated as valedictorian of her class. While at St. Joseph's she met and married her soul mate, Edmond Aloysius Dobry and remained together for 57 years ending with his death in 1998. Dorothy and Edmond managed the Dobry Homestead on Red Hill near Minco after they were married and later moved into the Chickasha area. Eventually they purchased a house on Colorado Avenue in 1952 just half a block from were they first met. They remained there and raised their family. Later Dorothy relocated to Norman to be near family. Dorothy was the "CEO" of the Dobry household. After her youngest daughter entered school, Dorothy went to work as a nurse's aide at Grady Hospital working in the nursery. Later she attended Canadian Valley VoTech to obtain her LPN credentials and returned to Grady Memorial Hospital until she retired. She loved caring for the newborns in the nursery and she was one of the Neonatal Care nurses for high risk infants. She continued to volunteer at the hospital for many years after her retirement. Dorothy was a member of Holy Name Catholic Church. She was a member of Alter Society and the Catholic Daughters of America, serving as an officer in each organization for many years. She and Edmond enjoyed many of the simple things in life one of which was family fishing outings. Dorothy and Edmond enjoyed playing cards with family and friends. They had a standard traveling pinochle party every Sunday evening with seven to nine other couples. Most are now gone and the cards are no longer dealt. Dorothy is preceded in death by her husband, Edmond; daughters, Eva Ann and Mary Evelyn. Three brothers: Elmo, Joseph and Eugene and pretty darn near all of her contemporary relatives and friends. Dorothy is survived by five children: two daughters, Frances Carol and husband, George Hoebing of Oklahoma City; Dorothy Jean and husband, Jay Simon of Edmond; three sons: Allen Lewis and wife, Orlenna of Seattle, Washington; John Joseph and wife, Susan of Norman. Dorothy’s heritage also boast fourteen grandchildren, twenty-two great grandchildren and two great-great grandchildren and numerous cousins, nieces and nephews. In lieu of flowers, Dorothy simply request that you hug your children and grandchildren. “Oh how she loved her babies.” If you feel compelled to make a financial contribution she asks that it be made to Holy Name Catholic Church or to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.
