Private graveside services will be at the Fairbank Cemetery in Fairbank, Iowa. Dorothy was born October 4, 1957, in Buchanan County, Iowa, the daughter of Robert Lee and Darlene Grace (Harn) Wilkinson. She graduated from Wapsie Valley High School in rural Fairbank with the class of 1976. She worked at a number of grocery stores in the area including the Fairbank Grocery Store in Fairbank and Fareway Meat and Grocery in Independence, Iowa. On March 5, 1977, Dorothy was united in marriage to Calvin James Fowler at The Little Brown Church in Nashua, Iowa. Together they had Harry, Bill, and Michael. Calvin preceded Dorothy in death, April 25, 2001. Dorothy had a caring personality. She loved to cook and bake, and will always be remembered for her cinnamon rolls. She was hardworking and generous. Dorothy had a way to put you at ease, but was still able to let you know she meant business. She enjoyed quilting, fishing, camping, and mushroom hunting. She loved her family and enjoyed every moment she had with her grandchildren and her great grandchild. Dorothy is survived by her 3 sons, Hary (Erin) Fowler of Cedar Falls, Iowa, Bill (Amanda) Fowler of Goose Lake, Iowa, and Michael Fowler of Harrisburg, South Dakota; 10 grandchildren; 1 great grandchild with 1 on the way; 3 sisters, Donna Pollock of Fairbank, Ronda Ives of Grinnell, Iowa, Tricia (Mark) Bair of Grinnell; 2 brothers, Robert Wilkinson of Independence, and Raymond Wilkinson of Waterloo, Iowa. She is preceded in death by her parents; husband, Calvin; and one sister Rosemary Wilkinson. Condolences may be placed at www.White-MtHope.com. Also by VENMO: @Harry-Fowler-2 |
