Dorothy had one brother and one sister. Her sister, Evelyn Rose (Kroupa) Stann, who graduated Sayville High in 1935, passed away on November 24, 1970, in Virginia, when Dorothy was 51 years old.
Evelyn was born on August 28, 1917, and was interred at Arlington National Cemetery after her death at the age of 53.
Dorothy’s brother, Louis Edward Kroupa, was born on June 21, 1915, in Bohemia and died on March 30, 1980, in Bohemia, New York, when Dorothy was 60 years old.
