Obituary of Dorothy Jones


TRUDEL -- Dorothy (Dottie) Jones Trudel, 79, the last surviving child of Dorothy (Gallup) Jones and Dr. Samuel M. Jones, owner of the Jones division of the Arnold Print Works in North Adams between 1926 and 1942, died on Oct. 13, 2005, at her home in Coral Springs. The Arnold Print Works, which employed at one time over 3,000 workers and was one of the largest producers of printed fabric in the world, is now the home of Mass MoCA. Born in North Adams in 1925, Dottie grew up in the family home on Bulkley Street in Williamstown, graduated from Colby Junior College and was employed in the dean's office of Williams College. As a young woman she was an accomplished equestrian. In 1949 she married Albert Trudel of Claremont, N.H., and eventually settled in Glens Falls, N.Y. She and Al dearly loved raising five children. Among her many civic interests, Dottie was a past president of the Glens Falls Hospital Guild, and a longtime volunteer with the American Red Cross and the Church of the Messiah in Glens Falls. She was also a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Together with Al, they maintained their beautiful home and gardens at 278 Ridge St. as one of the city's showplaces. Their home was featured in city historic home tours. Upon Al's retirement from owning C.V. Peters men's clothing store, she and Al spent an increasing amount of time at their home Coral Springs, moving there full-time in 1990. Dottie loved the visits of her children and eleven grandchildren and enjoyed traveling with them on vacations. In Coral Springs, she continued her interest in service to the community by volunteering at Coral Springs Medical Center and helping to manage their local Thrift Shop. Dottie was predeceased by her husband Al in 2000. She is survived by her children Steven Trudel of Florence, Mass., Dorothy Lyn Trudel of Coral Springs, Fla., Samuel Trudel of Shoreham, Vt., David Trudel of Montgomery, Al., Susan Marton of Martinsville, N.J., niece Deborah Coyne of North Adams, nephews Jeffrey Clark of Nahand and Russell Clark of Worthington, and grandchildren Jason, Joseph and Alexis Cenami, Ryan and Alyssa Trudel, Timothy Trudel, Larra Wallace, and Jeremy, Emily, Samuel and Philip Marton. A memorial service will be held at a later date at the Church of the Messiah in Glens Falls, N.Y. Memorial contributions to North Adams Hospital in Dottie's name are welcome.
