    Mrs. Dorothy was born in Beaufort County on April 17, 1939, daughter of the late Alphonso Joseph Andreoli and the late Hazel Arabella Latham Andreoli. She was a 1957 graduate of Pantego High School. On August 15, 1959 she married Whitford Steward Keech, Jr. who preceded her in death on July 5, 1982. On January 1, 1983 she married Alford Uriah Leggett who also preceded her in death on January 24, 1990. She retired from Beaufort County Health Department as a Case Administrator in the WIC Program. Mrs. Dot grew up in Free Union Free Will Baptist Church of Pinetown and could not bring herself to cut that tie and move her membership elsewhere. She loved gardening, crafts and most importantly raising her children.

    Survivors include her children: Joey Keech and Whitford "Peanut" Keech (Tammy) all of Washington, Gina Keech Brown (Ted) of Rock Hill, SC, Rodney Lee Keech of Washington and David Clark Keech (Katherine) of Martinez, GA; grandchildren: Joseph Christopher "J.C."
