Dorothy was born in Wenona on February 25, 1933 to John and Mary (Obermiller) Myszkowski.  She married John “Darnell” Mann on August 18, 1956 in Wenona. Dorothy was a homemaker.  Before the birth of her children, she worked at Wenona Produce, Bassie’s and Owens Illinois Glass.  She also worked at the school cafeteria in Wenona.  

Dorothy was a member of St. Mary’s Church and the Altar and Rosary Society.  She was a graduate of St. Mary’s Grade School and Wenona High School.

Dorothy enjoyed spending time with her family, playing bingo, and cards, and sitting outside on the deck.  She also enjoyed watching all kinds of sports, especially her favorite team, the Chicago Cubs.  Dorothy’s family came first, where ever “dad” was, she was probably close by.  Her grandson, Nick was the apple of her eye.

Mrs. Mann is survived by her husband Darnell, happily married for 64 years; children, Scott (Laura) Mann of Spring Valley and Kim (Bill Lehr) Mackiewicz of Streator; one grandson, Nick (Sarah Ratajczak) Mann of Ladd.

She was preceded in death by her parents, four sisters, Clara, Kathryn, Madgaline and Agnes; one brother Edward; a granddaughter, Melissa Mann, in infancy.

Memorials may be directed to the Cumberland Cemetery Association, Caring Heart’s of Wenona or Wenona Ambulance.
