Dorothy "Bugs" R. Carlberg, nee Bartos

This beautiful tribute fills in the small details in the impression I had immediately upon meeting Dorothy late in her life. Here was a lady whose feistiness I could and did appreciate. I feel honored to have been able to share my colleague John’s mother ( and my colleague Sheila’s mother-in-law) for a little while. She and I shared a love for glitzy jewelry and I was delighted that she liked my gift of one particularly outrageous ring. She will be missed by many.

I had the pleasure of spending time with Dorothy when she was living at John and Sheila’s home in Ft. Atkinson. I was instantly drawn to Dorothy and her child-like enthusiasm and quick wit. She took such delight in just the simplest things. She was always wearing her sparkly and fun bling and had such a contagious smile. I will miss her. Janice (Sheila's sister)

That was a thoughtful and informative obituary; it covered the full description of Dorothy's character. She was lively and had a ready smile and clever quip. May she rest in peace. Ed Turek (Sheila's dad)

Beautifully written obit., and what a full life Aunt Dorothy had. She was such a sharing person. I wish I had gotten to know her better in life. Who knew she loved Bobby Vinton songs? We all could have been singing along with Dorothy. All of her close family and friends will miss her terribly. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
