Sad News

I received this email yesterday:

Dear Jolene,
I am sorry to let you know that my mother, Dorothy Gilman, passed away this morning at the age of 88. She had been suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease for the past nine years so her death is both sad and a relief. She appreciated the kind work you have done to provide information and a forum for her fans. Take care and feel free to pass this information along as you see fit. Jonathan Butters

We wish to express our sincerest regret to Jonathan and the rest of his family for this tremendous loss. All of us will cherish her writings and miss her style.

Here is a link to the New York Times writeup:

Dorothy Gilman Books Now on Kindle

Good Day Fellow Dorothy Gilman Fans! I was cruising the Amazon site looking for new books to add to my new Kindle Reading Device and came across several of Dorothy Gilman’s books available on the Amazon Kindle Section of the Bookstore! Granted only two of her books have actually been converted to a Kindle Book version however several are being offered as audio book downloads from their server directly into your Kindle Device. How cool is that? Because there is no physical media or packaging involved the prices for these audio books are less expensive than the ones you order on CD or cassette tape (if you can still find them). I was so excited I can’t wait until payday so that I can order my first one. We have added the links to these books on our Dorothy Gilman Bookstore page under the category “Books on Tape/CD/Kindle“.

If you don’t have a Kindle Reading Device yet now is the time to get one! They are offering lower prices on their devices and are even offering a Colored Touch-Screen Version of the device called a Kindle Fire. You can look at one on our bookstore page under the heading “Kindle Devices”. It will not be shipped until the middle of November and as soon as I can afford one I am absolutely going to order one. I have enjoyed my lightweight Kindle very much over the last several months and look forward to using the colored version as well.
