Dortha Gillogly Obituary

Dortha Jean Gillogly, 93, of Mount Cory passed away November 27, 2025 at Serenity Spring Senior Living in Arlington, Ohio. She was born May 15, 1932, in Salyersville, Kentucky, to Bert and Ressie Greene.

In 1935, the family relocated to Ohio and settled in the Vanlue area, where she attended school. "Jean" (as she was known by friends and family) worked for the Triplett Meter Company in Bluffton, Ohio. In 1953, she married Durwood Entsminger and had two sons. Her husband tragically died in a hunting accident in 1958. In 1960, she married Ronald Gillology, and they had another son. Ron preceded her in death in 2023.

She is survived by her sisters Barbara Rogge and Martha Strange; her sons Gary (Laney) Entsminger, Brad (Kathleen) Entsminger, and Jeffrey (Christine) Gillogly. Also, her grandchildren Benjamin (Courtney) Entsminger, Rachel (Alan) Lanning, Jennifer (Devin) Butler, and Matthew Entsminger, great-grandchildren Carley, Cailynn, Kennedy, Emmalynn, Landon, and Alan. Jean was preceded in death by her parents; brothers Clyde, Donald, Kenneth; sisters Alma, Orpha, Thelma, Virginia and Nella Fay, niece Gloria Frommer, nephew David Greene and daughter in law Marsha Gillogly. Jean had countless beloved nieces and nephews also.

A devoted homemaker who loved her family and beautiful flower garden and was excellent at games like ping pong and cornhole. Jean enjoyed spending time at her home in Mt. Cory for 62 years. She had a love for athletic competition and enjoyed watching her sons' Cory Rawson High School sports teams and Ohio State football and basketball. She was a member of Gospel Fellowship Church in Rawson and knew Christ as her Savior. We would like to thank Courtney, the hospice nurse, for loving care.
