Dorothy Earle Obituary

SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY- Dorothy T. Earle, of Saratoga Springs, NY, passed away peacefully on November 9, 2025, at the age of 96. Born on September 9, 1929, in Perry, NY, she was the youngest of four children born to the late Chester and Bertha Jederewski.

Dorothy graduated from the University of Buffalo with a degree in business and began her career with Bausch & Lomb in Rochester, NY. In 1967, she moved to Saratoga Springs with her husband, Harry Earle, where they made their home and raised their family. After leaving the workforce to become a homemaker, Dorothy devoted herself to caring for her loved ones and creating a warm, welcoming home.

A devout and lifelong Catholic, Dorothy’s faith was central to her life. She was a woman of quiet strength, kindness, and grace, who found joy in life’s simple pleasures—reading, working on word puzzles, and spending time with her family.

Dorothy was predeceased by her parents; her beloved husband, Harry Earle; and her siblings, Stanley, Florence, and Edward. She is survived by her daughter, Julie Hughes (Keith); her grandchildren, Jack Hughes (Emily) and Kerry Hughes and her fiancé, Dean; as well as several nieces, nephews, and dear friends.

Dorothy will be lovingly remembered for her gentle spirit, her steadfast faith, and her deep devotion to her family.
