It is with great sadness our family announces the passing of our mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and dear friend Dorothy Racht.  She died peacefully surrounded by her family on March 1, 2023.

Born, September 26, 1933, in Old Forge, to Joseph and Laura (Danoski) Fitt, she leaves behind her brothers Joseph, William and  David and her sister Charlotte (Litwiniec)(Kolodziej).

She Married Jack Racht and together in Dickson City raised her children, John (Sharon Drake), Linda (Michael) Chorba, Judith (Paul) Bailey, Nancy (Sosnowski) (John) Bogdanovicz and Janet (Kevin, Dec.2005) Johnson.

Dorothy's Greatest joy was receiving sweet and loving hugs from her 12 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren.  Dorothy's most rewarding employment was at Moses Taylor Hospital where she worked for 30 years.

A generous soul, Dorothy gave freely of her time and was always willing to lend a hand or provide comfort and companionship.  She also had a sense of humor and would never hesitate to offer an honest opinion.

When Dorothy and Jack weren't traveling to Alabaster, AL or Sarasota, FL they loved their many drives to the New England area.

Please remember Dorothy with an act of kindness or by correcting someone's improper use of the English language.

She'll be greatly missed by her family and friends.

Dorothy's care was provided by Robert Toale and Sons Funeral Home at Palms Memorial Park, Sarasota FL and John F. Glinsky Funeral Home,Inc., Throop,PA

A Celebration of Life will be held for Dorothy Sept. 1, 2023, 4 -7 pm at LaBuona Vita 200 Reilly St.Dunmore, PA 18512
