Dorothy Mae Wagner

Dorothy Mae Wagner, 52, of Quakertown, passed away on August 24, 2025. Born on March 16, 1973, in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, she was the beloved daughter of the late Eufemio Burgos and Dorothy Mae (Henshaw) Burgos.

Dorothy was the devoted wife of Earl Frederick Wagner, with whom she shared 21 years of love, laughter, and unwavering companionship. Her joy was found in the simple pleasures-cooking meals that brought people together, exploring new places with curiosity and delight, and surrounding herself with the warmth of children and animals. She had a gentle gift for connecting with little ones and was a cherished Aunt and babysitter to many.

Dorothy held many roles throughout her life; each rooted in compassion and service. As a Certified Nursing Assistant, she spent over 15 years caring for residents in nursing homes, offering comfort and dignity to those in their most vulnerable moments. Later, she served as an Administrative Assistant for a group home, continuing her lifelong commitment to supporting others. No matter the title, every job she held was an extension of her heart-centered on kindness, patience, and the quiet strength of showing up for others.

Dorothy never met a dog she didn't adore, and her kindness extended to every living soul she encountered. In quiet moments, Dorothy found peace in knitting-many family members still wrap themselves in the blankets she lovingly crafted. She was also an avid reader, always eager to lose herself in a good book.

Dorothy is survived by her husband, Earl; her siblings Jerry Burgos (Vicki), Sandra Mumbauer (Richard), Julie Williams (Robert), and Jennifer Burgos (Edwin); her nephews Nicolas and Benjamin; her nieces Morgan and Emma; and many other loving family members and friends. All who knew her will remember her warmth, her laughter, and the quiet strength she carried through every season of life.
