Obituary for Dorothy M. Anglim
Anglim, Dorothy M., age 96 of Champlin, born in Dassel, MN on 8/24/21 and passed away peacefully on 12/9/2017. Proceeded in death by husband, William J.; sons, William Jr., John & James; parents, Carl & Mary Escen; brothers, Adolph & Donald; grandson, Ryan Gamber and many other relatives and friends. Loved and cared for by daughters, Carolyn (Richard) Backley, Nancy Anglim, & Kathleen (Gerald) Gamber; grandchildren, Richard Jr. (Angela), Christopher (Amber), Steven, Jessica, Matthew, Jacob, Alexander; great-grandchildren, Richard III, Kenneth & Isadora; niece, Sylvia (Philip) Holtz; nephew, Paul Escen. Also survived by Mary Carey & Patricia Stolle. Dorothy worked for the University of Minnesota where she met and fell in love with William Anglim. Bill and Dorothy were married 7/12/1947 and both worked happily at the University of Minnesota until retirement. Most important to Dorothy was spending time with her devoted family, beating John at cribbage, Sunday phone calls with Henry & Barb, playing scrabble with Donna, Nancy & Laurie, and winning at bingo. She had a lot of wonderful friends at Brookdale Champlin, where she resided for twelve years. Thank you to Carmen, Chris, Chuck and Greg for all the extra love and care you gave Dorothy. We also like to thank Brookdale Hospice for your compassion and guidance during this difficult time.

Loading Conversation
Evans-Nordby funeral chapel in Osseo, MN handled my husband’s cremation and Celebration of Life service in July of 2023. I can’t say enough positive things about all aspects of my interactions with them. They reached out to help every step of the way—from planning the Celebration of Life service, the service itself, and after care contact. Brittney was the person I primarily worked with. She was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, organized, and had great communication skills, which greatly helped in reducing my stress level. I plan to contact Evans-Nordby soon to pre-plan my own final arrangements.
