Dorothy E. Alcott PUTNAM --- Dorothy E. Alcott, 83, of Woodstock Ave, was born into the next world on Aug. 21, 2021, at home after a long courageous battle with cancer. She was the wife of the late Joseph Alcott Sr. Born in 1938 in Lexington, Mass., and the daughter of the late Alfred and Vera (Twombley) Nutt. Her passion for any and all travel is clearly documented by her spoon collection and the stories she shared. When asked if she wants to go on a trip, first answer is yes; followed by where are we going? Dorothy also loved her dogs, and am sure that they will be the first to greet her upon her arrival in the next world. She was an avid reader and enjoyed knitting and baking; in fact many readers may have had experienced her birthday or wedding cakes. Dorothy worked as an administrative assistant for Marianapolis Preparatory School as well as Kaman Aerospace for many years. She leaves sons Dennis Alcott (Naruemon) of Putnam and Kevin Alcott (Maraya) of Temecula, Calif.; her surrogate daughter and travel buddy Lisa Foisy of Brooklyn; her sister, Trudy Ann Wade of Port Orange, Fla.; grandchildren, Lindsay Falanga, and Andrew and James Alcott; and several great-grandchildren. She was predeceased by her son, Joseph Alcott Jr, her sisters Cynthia Wilson and Shirley Jean Nolan and her dogs, Susu and Ping. Visitation is from 9 to 10 a.m. Aug. 26 in Gilman Funeral Home & Crematory, 104 Church St., Putnam, followed by a funeral service in the funeral home at 10 a.m. Burial in St Mary Cemetery. Donations: Humane Society in Dorothy’s memory.
