    Our condolences to the family of this lovely lady who was loved by all who knew her. “Aunt Doll” as most of us knew her will certainly always be remembered.

    We had many great times at Grandma and Grandpa’s house growing up, they were both great people who helped shape our lives. May God comfort the Frohn family during this difficult time.

    Dear Frohn and extended family,
    Thinking of you and remembering a lovely lady. Her son, Bruce, was our high school classmate.
