Dorothy Mae Nuckols' Obituary
Dorothy Mae Nuckols, 76, of Farmland, IN passed away peacefully at her residence, surrounded by her loving family, early Saturday, October 10, 2009. She was born July 20, 1933 in Winchester, IN, the daughter of Charles and Reba (Kirkpatrick) Mitchell.
Dorothy had worked as an Administrative Assistant with State Farm Insurance. She was a member of the Farmland Church of the Nazarene where she was past president of Missions.

She was President of Lake Co. Cultural Arts and Crafts during the early 90's.
She enjoyed cooking, crafts, flower gardening and decorating cakes. Though she had many accomplishments, Dorothy's greatest joy and love was her family, especially her grandchildren.
