Dorothy's death record has not been located; it is possible that she remarried after Albert's death. Online trees at Ancestry.com either conflate her with another Dorothy Otto who died in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, in 2002 (which at least matches the year of death on her grave marker) or state that she died in New York City in 2004, which contradicts her grave marker.
