Dorothy Solveig Scott, 84, passed away on Thursday, September 13, 2012, at Lehigh Valley Hospital. She struggled to keep independent, receiving her food from Meals on Wheels of Northampton County, but succumbed to her health conditions and was placed at Manor Care Nursing Home in Bethlehem, for the past year. Born December 11, 1927, in Newark, NJ to Trygve John and Marie Jane (Mohr) Ryberg. Her grandmother raised her as a child. She read her Bible often, writing prayers and other materials. She loved and was an avid reader of poetry and loved dogs. One of her writings: I need someone that needs me, and someone to be there when I need them. Especially, someone to make my life meaningful. I am presently in a stagnant trap here, and this is not my way of living, I need someone special and caring to free me from this closed in corner of my world. (She said many seniors felt this way. She was preceded in death by her parents and her siblings, Martin, John, Aletta, and Trygve. Services: Interment will be with family in Boca Raton, FL. God Bless you, Dorothy.
