I am sorry to hear about the homegoing of Dorothy. She was a great friend and will always remember her in the choir. May God bless you in your time of sorrow. She is singing with the angels now

To the Stith Family,
My heart is heavy and very saddened by the loss of a good friend and confidant. We have known one another for at least 18 years. I've always told her, "I want to just like you when I grow up". It was such a pleasure laughing and talking with Dorothy on Sun, Jan 11. She spoke so favorably of my son, Joshua and nephew, DJ.

She will be sorely missed,
Blessing to each of you, Yolonda Thompson
