Dorothy J Brigham's Obituary
Dorothy J. Brigham (née Geisz), of Cinnaminson, NJ, passed away peacefully at her home on July 17, 2025, at the age of 90. Born in Philadelphia, PA, she was the daughter of the late John and Madeline (née Rickert) Geisz.
Dorothy was the beloved wife of the late John W. Brigham. She was a devoted mother to Kathryn Urban (David), Carol Brigham, Dorothy Stolzer (Stephen), and Patricia McDaniels. She was the cherished “Mom Mom” to Jennifer Urban (Corwin Michaels), Carolyn Urban (William LaTrella), Christine Urban, and John Stolzer. Dorothy is also survived by her step great-granddaughter, Penelope, her sister, Jeannette Wilkinson, as well as many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends who will miss her dearly.
Dorothy found great joy in baking, cooking, knitting, and crocheting. Over the years, she lovingly created countless pairs of handmade booties and afghans for her children and grandchildren—treasured keepsakes that carry her warmth and care.
She will be remembered for her generous heart, her creative spirit, and the deep love she had for her family.
