She also enjoyed a variety of music, from the R & B classics to Elvis Presley. Her favorite artist was soul legend James Brown. When Eddie passed in 2011, Dorothy took his death hard. In 2017, she sold her home and moved to Ocean Springs, Mississippi to be near her daughter, Consuelo. Dorothy Fraction passed away on February 1st, 2020. Dorothy leaves to cherish her memory, her daughter, Consuelo Hudson; her step-daughter, Beverly Wilcher; her granddaughters, Jacqueline Hudson and Jephreda Hudson; nieces, nephews, friends, and neighbors.
