Obituary for Dorothy "Dotty" Goldstein (Byrne)

Dorothy “Dotty” (Byrne) Goldstein 91, of Atkinson, NH, formerly of Malden & Melrose, Entered Eternal Rest on September 17, 2022.

Dotty Goldstein was a woman devoted to her family and others. She met her husband Benny Goldstein at Revere Beach, and they were married August 15th, 1954. They built their family together and were married until he passed suddenly in 1985.

Dotty and Benny resided in Malden MA, working at the family-owned business Home Cash Market on Salem St until its closing. After, she assisted Dentist Dr. Gordon on Holden St. Dotty was the last of the original Moms of Hemlock Heights in Atkinson NH, where the family spent every summer until moving there permanently in 2003 with her daughter, son-in-law, and grandson. The home, still full of life and memory, was built by Dotty’s husband Benny in 1954.

Dotty was an active member of Temple Ezrath Israel. She was committed to faith and service becoming the Sisterhood President, working many hours in the kitchen, and calling bingo. The love and kindness she shared with others will truly be missed.

Dotty was the devoted wife of the late Bernard “Benny” Goldstein; beloved mother of Al & his wife Christine Goldstein; Lois & her husband James Paul; and Gail & her husband Robert Spellman; adored grandmother of Eric Goldstein, Alicia Taylor, Matthew Goldstein, Sarah Goldstein, Thomas Spellman, Nichole Anderson, and Rebecca Rochford; cherished great grandmother of Rylee, Luke, Ayden, Evelyn, Drew, and Summer; dear sister of the late Lawrence (Bud) Byrne, James Byrne, Katherine Barnes, Ann Amundson, Francis Byrne, Joseph (Frankie) Byrne, Richard Byrne, and David Byrne.
