I am a resident at Geraldine Thompson in Allenwood,and just recently
heard of Dotties passing.She had the cutest smile,and we would talk
often about "busting" out of the nursing home.I would pass her in the
hallway and I or she would say "Today's the day,we are going over the
wall" like in a bad prison movie.I'll miss you Dottie.RIP
