Dorothy (Lisanti) Stock, of Danbury, died on January 15, 2012 at Danbury Health Care after a long and courageous battle with cancer and other associated illnesses. Dorothy was a life-long Connecticut resident, living in various towns in the Danbury area for the duration of her life.
She was a homemaker for most of her life, until 1975 when she went to work in the Danbury Hospital Housekeeping Department where she had many friends and enjoyed the work she did. Dorothy loved music and she loved to sing with her family. She also enjoyed the Friday night card games at her in-laws' homes during her marriage to Edward. She was crazy about seafood, and she loved the animals she had throughout her lifetime, especially her cats. Once she became a resident of Danbury Health Care, she was very active in their community and had many friends, and she was also the resident treasurer.
Stock was pre-deceased by her father Basil K. Bartram, Sr. and her mother Dorothy Arlich Bartram, first husband Edward A. Stock Sr., and her second husband Jack Lisanti. Dorothy is survived by her three sons: Arthur Stock and his wife Linda, Mark Stock Sr., and Edward Stock Jr. and his wife Katrina, all of Danbury.
