!REFERENCE: 29-Nov-2008 email from niece Mary Elizabeth Van Zile Kelly to Don Braffitt, "I just found out that Dorothy Van Zile Smith had died a few years back and her daughter Joan lives in Warwick, NY. ... Dorothy Van Zile Smith was my father’s only sister. Her husband was Bill Smith and he passed away shortly after my dad. He is also buried at the Airmont Lutheran Cemetery - they are all next to each other. I am not sure if she is still living at this time though. Have not heard or seen her since my mother passed away. She was living in New York somewhere with her daughter Joan Graham."
