Dorothy was born on March 23, 1924, in Richmond Hill, NY and grew up in Sea Cliff, NY. She was the eldest of three daughters born to Alfred Hyett and Ellen Reardon. Dorothy grew up by the seaside, and thoroughly enjoyed the outdoors, especially boating, swimming, and camping with her family. She continued to enjoy trips to the seaside for the remainder of her life. She was also an avid fan of the Yukon Huskies women's basketball team. She and her future husband, Lewis J. Butler, both attended Sea Cliff High School where they graduated in 1942. Dorothy went on to nursing school on Long Island while her future husband went off to war. Dorothy worked as a Registered Nurse for several years, in pediatrics and with polio patients. After war's end, Dorothy and Lewis married in Sea Cliff in 1949 and went on to have six children.
