Dorothy Murray Ogle

Dorothy M. Ogle, age 90, of Wilmington, DE passed away peacefully on Sunday, November 2, 2025, with her family by her side.

She was born in Wilmington, daughter of the late John and Sara (Darlington) Murray; was a graduate of H.B. DuPont School and Goldey-Beacom College; and enjoyed a long and successful career as a manager at Hercules.

Dorothy enjoyed playing tennis and enjoyed the bond of many lifelong friends; but she loved nothing more than spending time with her family. She supported her granddaughters at all of their school and sporting events; and her great-grandchildren were the lights of her life.

She is survived by her son, William “Dave” Ogle; her granddaughters, Valerie Javins (Nick), and Kelly Lockard (Spencer); and her great-grandchildren, Madison, Logan, Hudson, and Eden.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate her life at a graveside committal service at Gracelawn Memorial Park, 2200 N. DuPont Highway, New Castle, DE 19720 on Wednesday, November 12, 2025 at 11:00am. Her family will host a reception immediately following the service.
