DOROTHY P. (HUMPHRIES) Was born on February 21, 1927 to Claddie de Priest Humphries and Thomas F. Humphries in Stanton, VA (in the Shenandoah Valley) and died on Saturday, January 28, 2012. After high school she attended the Univ. of Houston in Houston, TX and the NY Institute of Finance in NY City. She was a stock broker with various NY Stock Exchange member firms in NY City, Houston, TX, Palm Springs, CA, and Albuquerque. She retired here in 1970. In 1973, she purchased a cosmetic franchise, which she sold in 1980. In 1962 she married Ernest Hagood, Jr., son of Ernest Hagood, MD, Alb. They moved to Alb. in 1968. Ernie died in 1988. It was at this time that she realized she had to turn everything over to the Lord, that she could not fix everything in life herself. In 1995 she married Bill Weisz, the love of her life. She is survived by her husband; two step-sons, Paul and wife Christy of Alb., NM and David and wife Mary Ann of Shapleigh, ME; six grandchildren; and one great-grandchild. Her only child, Barbara, died in July of 1999. She attended Mountain View Free Will Baptist Church. She adopted Bill's family as her own and was at the births of Paul and Christy's children. What a joy they were to her. A memorial service will be announced at a later date.
