Mrs. Dorothy "Dolly" McCabe

October 12, 1930 - September 20, 2021

Dorothy (Dolly) Mary Halligan McCabe, died on September 20, 2021, in Alpharetta, Georgia. She was born in 1930 to Patrick Joseph Halligan and Dora McGoey Halligan in Astoria, Queens, NY. She graduated from the College of Mount Saint Vincent in New York City with a bachelor’s degree in Commerce Education and took several classes toward her master’s degree. Dolly was a teacher throughout her life. Dolly was married in New York to John Scott McCabe (Jack) for 62 years (RIP, 2016). During their marriage, Dolly and Jack lived in NY, IL, FL, CA and GA and were fortunate enough to travel to Israel, Ireland, and many US destinations. Dolly is survived by four children (spouse), John (Mary), Mary Beth (Allen), Ellen (Glen) and Joseph (Cindy), seven grandchildren (Megan, Jake, Catherine, Christina, Patrick, Brian, Eric), first cousin Gerry Ryan, and the children of her beloved, late sister Patricia, Maureen, and Patrick. On November 1, 1973, Dolly was filled with the Holy Spirit, which was of great comfort and remained within her for the rest of her days. Her favorite song was, “I'm On My Way to Heaven” by Walt Mills; she is already there! In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Door of Faith Orphanage near Ensenada, Mexico in Jack and Dolly McCabe’s name: http://dofo.org/ Funeral services will be held at 2:00pm on Saturday, October 2, 2021 (visitation with family from 1:00pm – 2:00pm) at Northside Chapel, 12050 Crabapple Rd, Roswell, GA 30075. “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28
