Dorthea Seaborn

MANSFIELD -- Dorthea "Dottie" Stanton Seaborn, 65, passed away Friday, Dec. 21, 2012. Dottie was a courageous and vibrant force of loving life. Inflicted with polio at a young age, she survived through it with God-filled resilience and grace. Her constant positive perspective on life, even while living through difficult situations, will remain a lasting inspiration for all who knew her. She met all whom she encountered with bright, kind, smiling eyes and her compassionate empathy was limitless. She is truly irreplaceable and epitomizes the phrase "They don't make 'em like they use to!" Survivors: Husband, Terry R. Seaborn; stepdaughter, Kim Seaborn; brother, Jim Stanton; other family members.
