December 17, 1918 - December 3, 2011
Dorothy H. Dugan, 92, of Wildwood, died Saturday, December 3, 2011, at Dogwood Trails Nursing Center in Woodville. Dorothy was born December 17, 1918, in Port Arthur to Herbert M. “Rusty” and Allie Mae (McCulloch) Huber. She is predeceased by her parents and her loving husband of fifty-eight years, Wesley M. Dugan, Jr. A resident of Wildwood for more than thirty years, Dorothy retired from Port Arthur Independent School District as the registrar for Thomas Jefferson High School. She was also a long time member of Wildwood-Village Mills United Methodist Church, where she served in various ministries over the years.
She enjoyed traveling but was happiest in her beloved Wildwood. She was a member of the “ladies bunch” who worked on crafts and lunched together. She loved flowers, helping others, and entertaining friends on her deck overlooking the lake. Dorothy was dedicated to her church, her family and friends, her kitties, and her crossword puzzles which she completed in ink until age 90!
She is survived by her daughter, Pam Springer and her husband, Jerrol, of Houston; granddaughter, Laurie Tucker and her husband, David and their children, Madeline and Jessica of Katy; granddaughter, Dana Turner and her husband, Kevin and their children, Max and Lily of Dallas; and numerous other relatives and special friends. The family is grateful to her extended family--Becky, Trystan and all of special angels that cared for her with unconditional love during the last three years.
Her funeral service will be 11:00 a.m. Wednesday, December 7, 2011 at Wildwood-Village Mills United Methodist Church, 5943 FM 3063, Village Mills, Texas with burial to follow at Greenlawn Memorial Park in Groves under the direction of Broussard’s in Kountze. A gathering of her family and friends will begin at 10:00 a.m. Wednesday and continue until time of service.
The family has requested that memorial contributions be made in Mrs. Dugan’s name to Wildwood-Village Mills United Methodist Church, P. O. Box 332, Village Mills, Texas 77663 or the charity of your choice.
