Thank you Nick for letting us know. Dorothy and her mother Blanche were very active in the Bird Club. I did not see the obituary on the website, but I received an email from a friend of Dorothy’s who said there will be visitation at noon followed by a service at 1pm on Wednesday January 29th at Koch Funeral Home. Please pass this on to others that may have known Dorthy and want to attend.

Subject: Dorothy Bordner's passing

I was recently informed that longtime bird club member Dorothy Bordner passed away on Feb. 25.

Dorothy served the club over the years as president, secretary and treasurer. She was a mathematics instructor at Penn State. As a licensed bird bander she worked on various bird banding projects here in State College and in New Jersey. Dorothy also served as secretary of the Eastern Bird Banding Association.

A talented artist, her drawings of birds were featured in the books of Merrill Wood and in the recent history of the State College Bird Club.

Services for her will be this Wednesday, January 29 at the Koch Funeral home in State College. A complete obituary should be available on the funeral home website later today.
