Age 85, of Friendship Village of Upper St. Clair, passed away in April 2020. She was the beloved husband of the late Eric A. Carlson, Jr.; loving mother of Bonny Sutton, Eric A. Carlson and Dana C. Adams; cherished grandmother of Alex, Spencer, Tanner, Lily and Bobbiann. Dolly loved traveling with her family, especially to their cabin in the mountains. "To all our family and friends, Alex and I send this message with our love and gratitude for being in our lives. We are more grateful than all of you will ever know. This message comes with a heavy heart embedded with happiness for the celebration of my Mother's life. My Mother, Nanny, Aunt Dolly, Dolly, as many of you know her, has made the transition to the next stage of her spiritual existence. She joined Nanny, Poppy, Uncle Butch, Aunt Julie, and her beloved Husband, Eric. Being a published author and very spiritual, the last year was not a reflection of her true self. I truly believe that she is now at peace and is able to once again feel love in the next stage of her eternity. We want you to know, as I am sure my mother would, that she appreciates all your love and prayers. With the uncertainty of times regarding the pandemic, we will not be having any gatherings; this will be considered at a future date". Arrangements entrusted to BEINHAUER.
