God saw she was getting tired and a cure was not to be, So he put his arms around her and whispered, "COME WITH ME". With tearful eyes we watched her suffer and saw her fade away. Although we loved her dearly, we could not make her stay. A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands put to rest, God broke our hearts to prove he only takes the best.....Love you Mom

I remember Aunt Dorothy because every time that we would go to Alabama if she was there she and I would always go for a walk.. She was a great aunt and I always remember it was very important to her that every one knew Jesus and had them in their heart. I have very good memories of her even though we weren't able to see her often. I loved Aunt Dorothy.
