I was so sorry to hear about your loss. I worked with Dot for a couple of years before she retired from the County. When I first went to work in her Department, she was so kind and helpful. She made learning my new job so much easier. I will never forget her for that. She was a sweet, thoughful person with a great sense of humor. My prayers are with your family at this time.

Dot was my grandmother, my inspiration, my greatest ally, friend and the positive force driving in my life. I will never forget the lunches we had every month, the words of wisdom and the laughter we shared so much. My heart aches so much because she is gone, but I know she is still with me in so many ways. If you didn't know her, you were truly missing out on a great woman who I learned so very much from. She tuaght me to be strong, independent and never give up on want you want. She instilled a drive in me that I will carry on with for the rest of my life. I love you Grandma and you will be dearly missed, but never forgotten.
