Mary Madeline Dorsey

Mary Madeline Dorsey, age 93 of Naples, Florida, passed away peacefully on September 7, 2022, with her family by her side. She was known as 'Maggie' by everyone who met her and came to love her.

Maggie and O.D. Dorsey were married in 1950 until O.D's death in 1997. In 1964 they and their five children moved from Indiana to the United States Virgin Islands.
Maggie was a legal secretary and homemaker. Once the family was settled in Christiansted, St. Croix, her first job was the Office Secretary at St. Dunstan's Episcopal School. She then worked for the Attorney General's office of the U.S. Virgin Islands, and then for judges and private practice attorneys. Hurricane Hugo devastated St. Croix in 1989, which forced Maggie and O.D. to move to Naples, Florida where they had relatives. Maggie began working with Collier County Government in several departments, as a legal secretary to Court Judges along with Collier County Utilities. Her last position well into her 80s was as a volunteer with the Collier County Sheriff's office.

Maggie loved being with family, crocheting, cooking, making music and her late Dachshund 'Heidi'. She always had a positive attitude, looked at the brighter side of things, and had a wonderful sense of humor up to the end of her life.

She is survived by her children and their spouses: Jacalyn and Charles Liebfried; Daniel and Debra Dorsey; Christopher and Lisa Dorsey; Jane and Kevin Alexander; and son Thomas Dorsey; grandchildren: Kelly, her husband Michael Montejo; Nicholas Dorsey, his wife Amy Anderson; Olivia Dorsey; Kristina Osbron and Dustin Osbron; great-grandchildren: Mason and Dylan Montejo; Hudson and Sophia Dorsey.

Maggie will be laid to rest alongside O.D. at St. Peter Columbarium in Naples, Florida.There will be a private service with family.
