Dorothy M.  Blessing (Czech)
Dorothy M. Blessing, 91, of Rotterdam passed away Saturday September 2, 2017, after a short illness at St. Peter’s Hospital in Albany. Born in Schenectady, she was the daughter of the late Henrietta (Kwiatkowski) Kugler.

Dorothy as a teenager was employed at the Original Super Market in Schenectady.

Dorothy then moved on and worked in the offices of Carl Co, Wallace’s and Barney’s department stores. She finished her working career, as a file clerk in the General Electric Co. library.

Upon retiring from GE, Dorothy became a caregiver for her entire family. Dottie’s life was filled with caring for others. Dottie’s love and caring influenced everyone she knew, in ways she never realized. Dottie’s legacy will be for others to love the way she loved.

Dottie enjoyed cooking for everyone. Dorothy was passionate about traveling cross country in their RV. Dottie was a life member of the Harley’s Owner Group (HOG). She was also passionate about riding on the back of her husband’s motorcycle, even at age 91!
