Dori Lynn Clement went to heaven peacefully Monday, December 5, 2022. Dori resided in Metairie, Louisiana. She was the beloved daughter of the late Donald J. Clement, Sr. and Vitarose Clement. She is survived by her loving siblings: Denise Clement Prestenbach (Glenn Prestenbach); Donald J. Clement Jr. (Robin Clement); and Dawn Clement Duxworth (Kevin Duxworth), as well as many nieces and nephews.
Dori enjoyed life, taught us compassion, love, and her sunny personality had a touch of sass. She worked to achieve and maintain her independence. Dori attended St. Michael’s Special School and graduated from Grace King High School. She loved participating in the Special Olympics, and was a gold medalist in the 1983 International Games. She enjoyed volunteering at United Cerebral Palsy until her health declined. The family expresses our sincere gratitude to A-1 Absolute Best Care and Notre Dame Home Health/Hospice for ensuring she lived independently and maintained a beautiful quality of life.
Visitation will be held on Saturday, December 17, 2022, beginning at 9:00AM at Lake Lawn Metairie Funeral Home, 5100 Pontchartrain Blvd, New Orleans, LA, followed by a Funeral Mass at 11:00AM.
