Milton, and graduated from Waco High School in 1943. Dorothy was very beloved and throughout her lifetime had four husbands. She married her first love, John Thomas Welch, in 1944, and at the conclusion of that marriage, she went on to wed Albert McWilliams in 1947. Her final two marriages were to L.A. Scarborough, Jr. in 1951 to whom she was married to for 18 years, and later Steve Prebosnyak in 1974 with whom she shared 35 years.

Dorothy was such a wonderful lady and will be missed dearly. Will miss her letters at Christmas time. Always a pleasure to read about her family through her eyes which she loved very much. I guess she was the last older one from the Fort family? It would be nice to find out.
