Dorothy C. Raucci, 103, peacefully passed away at home on November 10, 2025, surrounded by her loving family. Born January 23, 1922 in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Dorothy lived a long and beautiful life shaped by grace, strength and unconditional love for her family.

Dorothy worked at General Electric for many years, before retiring to proudly own and operate the 412 Club with her husband of 74 years, James Raucci. Together, they built more than a business; they created a home for everyone, one filled with warmth, laughter, and genuine hospitality.

"Grams" was the heart of her family. Her greatest joy came from time spent with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Her faith and devotion to family became the foundation for four generations to thrive in her legacy. She cherished Sunday dinners, boat rides, sharing stories around the table, trips to the casino, and her weekly Bingo nights. She was a treasure and an inspiration to us all, whose selfless love and kindness will live on forever.

Dorothy is survived by her devoted daughter Elena Fry; grandchildren, Jim (Lisa), Jack (Kelley), and John (Erin) Fry; great-grandchildren, Megan (Joey) Herron, Madison (Jacob) Greer, Jacob, Ryan, Katelyn, and Amanda Fry; and great-great-granddaughter, Cecelia Herron — all of whom carry her legacy forward with pride and gratitude.

She was preceded in death by her husband and son, James and Pat Raucci; her son-in-law, Jack Fry; her parents, John and Sophia Kostecki; and her siblings, Frank, John, Joe, Paul, and Anna.

A Funeral Service will be held at 12:00 p.m. on Friday, November 14, 2025, at Divine Mercy Funeral Home – Cedar Canyons, 1956 W. Cedar Canyons Road, Huntertown, IN 46748 with visitation beginning at 10:00 a.m.  Entombment at Catholic Cemetery, Fort Wayne following the service.
