Aunt Dorothy welcomed me into the family from day one. She worked hard for her family that she loved so much. It was an added pleasure to get to know her also as a "sister in Christ." I will miss you, Aunt Dorothy, and look forward to seeing you again in heaven. I will be praying for your family during this time.

Aunt Dorothy was our Matriarch. She was the head of our family after Grandma Mac passed. She loved her family, we loved her in return. She made the best blackberry jam cake. She passed on her cooking skills to her family. My daddy loved her so very much. I hope the are together right now having a good ole reunion party. God bless those who are heartbroken today.
