She passed away before 2003 (estimate, life span less than 100 years).
From marriage record:
Father's Name: Joseph Perry.
Mother's Name: Nancy Nicholson.
The 1930 US Census shows Dorothy, with her 2 children, in the household of her father, whose surname is Wright and not Perry as listed on the marriage record to Spouse Risberg. Assume birth surname of Wright; maybe death records for children will show definitive birth surname.
