Dorothy Tavash, 81, a long-time resident of Fremont, passed away on March 13, 2016 from cancer at Park Central Rehabilitation Center. Our loving thanks to those who cared for her while she was there. Dorothy often referred to them as “family”.

Dorothy was born in 1934 to Vera Minnie Tavash and Ramon Rodriguez. She grew up in Oakland, with her brother, Bob, and sister, Betty.

Dorothy worked for many years as a cashier at Grocery Outlet in Newark up until the age of 80. When she was younger, she liked to bowl and owned her own ball and bowling bag. Her favorite pastimes were playing the lottery and the slot machines at the casinos.

She is survived by her sister Betty Langfield (and her daughters Amalia and Marisa NietoGomez), and her brother Bob and his wife De Langfield (with their son, Derek Langfield). She will be missed by her family.

As requested, there will be no services.
