Dorothy P. Brown, age 99 of Urbana, better known by everyone as “Grandma”, went on to be with her children on May 17, 2016 in Mercy Memorial Hospital, Urbana. Grandma was born to the late Edgar and Grace Riley on April 12, 1917 in St. Paris, Ohio. She was a huge wrestling fan, loved her family, and especially her best friend… her dog, Diesel.
