A little funeral home etiquette reminder that many people probably don't think about, but it really is important to remember...... We know everyone wants to pay their respects, and we truly appreciate that. But please don’t come early to “beat the crowd” or because you have somewhere to be afterward.
The time before visitation begins is private and precious for the family — moments they’ll never get back with their loved one. It means so much when that time is respected.
Thank you for understanding and for showing care not just in being here, but in giving the family the space they need before visitation starts.

Charlotte “Tangy” Dorsey, age 69, passed away peacefully on October 27, 2025, in Lincoln, Delaware surrounded by her family. Charlotte was born on November 24, 1955, in East Liverpool, Ohio. the daughter of (predeceased) Charles A. and Donna Jean Wilson, Charlotte lived a vibrant and spirited life that touched many souls from the east coast to the west coast.

A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, Charlotte, is lovingly remembered by her husband of 49 years, Henry Dorsey Jr.; daughters (predeceased after birth 1977) Bridgette Dorsey, Rana Shumski (Jeff) and Natalee Arrington (Bryan); sons Micah Dorsey (Meghan) and Jacob Dorsey; and grandchildren Bradley Pao, Marlaina Shumski, Remy Reece.

Charlotte is survived by her sisters Karen Curless (Charles) of El Paso, Texas; Linnie Croxall (John) of Tampa, Florida; Charles A. Wilson Jr and Edward L. Wilson (Barbara), both of Wellsville, Ohio. Charlotte also has four brothers-in-law, whom she has had countless joyful & tearful interactions and dining experiences with for over 50 years and they are Mitchell, Selmar, Bruce, and Gary Dorsey.

Her special life-long friend, Kristie Burns of Wellsville, Ohio has been Charlotte’s anchor and neighbor since the age of 3, and her niece Janea Jarvis, has been her bonus daughter since birth. Charlotte’s expanded list of children includes, Liz Trupkavich, Maria Cardona, Vanessa Pagan, Tiffany Turney, Raven Wilson, Nick Pao (Sandra), Shelby (Einwechter) Holmes, Lauren Einwechter, and extended grandchildren Luca and Penelope Trupkavich, and Sarah and Milan Pao. “Aunt Tangy”, also has numerous nieces and nephews who she loved dearly and tried never to forget them on their special days together. Charlotte also has numerous friends, buddies, and pals and in

naming them, someone may be inadvertently overlooked, however, please note that you hold a special place in our hearts, and you know who you are.

Charlotte was a Christian by faith and held firmly to her belief in the truth and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. Even as Charlotte faced pancreatic cancer with courage and prayed for a miracle, she remained steadfast in her trust that Jesus was her Rock, Sword, and Savior.

Known affectionately as “Tangy,” she graduated from Jefferson County Technical Institute with a degree in Medical Assisting and worked for many doctors, surgeons, and hospitals, before medically retiring in 1998.

Charlotte had a personality as colorful as the flowers she so lovingly tended. Her green thumb was legendary—her home flourished with flowerpots and thriving plants, especially the numerous orchids she nurtured with care. Shopping was another of her favorite pastimes—though she often joked that she loved to hate it. Her knack for finding bargains was unmatched; she delighted in “pinching Abe Lincoln’s head” to stretch every dollar.

Charlotte’s zest for life also extended to music and the dance floor. Whenever music played, she would grab a partner—any partner—and dance with joy and abandon. Her energy was infectious, and her laughter unmistakable. She had a unique way of connecting with people. Whether you were family, friend, or stranger on the street, if Charlotte called you “Eunice,” you knew you were in her circle—even if she couldn’t remember your name. It became one of her endearing trademarks: everyone became Eunice and it didn’t matter whether you were male or female, she called you Eunice.

Charlotte spoke her mind with clarity and conviction. You never had to wonder where you stood with her—she told it like it was. Yet beneath that candor was a heart full of warmth and generosity. She made friends easily and kept them close through honesty, humor, and unwavering loyalty.

Her legacy lives on through those who knew her best—her family who adored her, her friends who laughed with her, and anyone lucky enough to be called “Eunice.” May Charlotte’s memory bring comfort to all who loved her and joy to those who recall her laughter echoing through their hearts.

"When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure".

Glen Dale McLain, affectionately known as "Mac," passed away peacefully on October 19, 2025,surrounded by his family. Born in Irondale, Ohio, on October 2, 1935, Mac lived a life marked by dedication, adventure, and a profound love for family and community.

Mac's journey began in Irondale, where he graduated from Irondale High School with the Class of 1953. His talent on the baseball field earned him a scholarship to Eastern Kentucky, and his pursuit of knowledge took him to Ohio State and The College of Steubenville. Driven by a sense of duty and adventure, he joined the Air Force with the aspiration of becoming a jet pilot.

For 45 years, Mac dedicated his talents to Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel, contributing his skills in various roles within the company, including the BOF and caster units, pattern shop, and as an electrician and carpenter. His hard work and dedication were recognized with the Presidential Recognition Award, a testament to his unwavering commitment and professionalism.

Beyond his career, Mac's heart lay with his family and community. As a founding member of the Knoxville Volunteer Fire Department and an elder and member of Hilltop Presbyterian Church, he served tirelessly. He also actively participated in the Raritan Club, fostering a spirit of fellowship and service.

An inspirational leader and mentor, Mac's passion for guiding young minds shone through his roles as an Odyssey of the Mind Coach and Scout Leader for Troop 143-Island Creek . He led his troop on a memorable 75-mile hike along the Appalachian Trail, instilling values of perseverance and teamwork.

Mac was a man who loved the outdoors, whether farming, hunting birds and rabbits in his younger years, or simply enjoying nature's beauty. His true joy, however, was always found in the company of his beloved family.

Mac is survived by his devoted wife, Carol Anita (Rose) McLain, with whom he shared a remarkable journey of nearly 70 years since their marriage on January 28, 1956. Together, they raised four children: Connie (Bob) Musgrave of Steubenville, JoAnn Piccin of Arizona, Terri (John Webber) McLain of Rogers, and Glen "Eddie" (Janet) McLain of Toronto. His legacy continues in his grandchildren: Bob Musgrave, Jr, Brad Musgrave, Justin Piccin, Jesse Bible, Joseph Piccin, Narayana Cieslak, Keshava Cieslak, Dwija Cieslak, Gene McLain, Sarah McLain, and Kyle McLain. He is also survived by 17 great-grandchildren, for whom he was an endless source of love and inspiration.
