      Obituary:
      Published January 18, 2011
      Dorothy Jean (Carlyon) Jacobsen Hitshew died Sunday, Jan. 16, 2011, with her daughters at her side.
      Dorothy, affectionately known as "Dottie," was born Dec. 11, 1939, in Butte, to Arthur and Audrey (Hoar) Carlyon. She grew up in Centerville, attended Blaine Elementary and graduated from Butte High in 1957.
      She married Leo Jacobsen in 1959. They had two daughters, Julie Ann and Lynette Kay. They were divorced in 1981. She married Kenneth Hitshew in 1990.
      Dorothy worked in several places in Butte, even owning her own business, "High Country Feed and Supply." Her last job was in the cafeteria at Butte High School, where she loved being around the kids and considered her co-workers as extended family.
      She was preceded in death by her parents; brother, Arthur "Bud" Carlyon; sister, Marjorie "Joan" Tokish; husband, Kenneth; and nephew, Arthur "Butchie" Carlyon.
      Dottie is survived by her daughters and sons-in-law, Julie and David Cassidy of Dallas, Lynette and Jim LeProwse of Butte; grandchildren, Josh, Jessica and Logan LeProwse and Cade and Kacy Cassidy; very special niece, Pam Tokish LeProwse; and several cousins and friends.
      She beamed with pride and joy when talking about her family. They were her whole life and kept her fighting her illness.
      Cremation has taken place. Memorial services will be conducted at 11 a.m. Saturday in Wayrynen-Richards Funeral Home.
      In lieu of flowers, please make donations to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals or Shriners Hospital for Children.
      The family is grateful to Rocky Mountain Hospice, Linda Welsh, Mom's nurse (and friend), and Chris Krzan. "You've all been so wonderful."
