Dottie,
Your wish finally came true to be together again with Bruno. May you finally rest in peace my friend. I will miss your visits. You always made me laugh with your stories and opinions!

I sure will miss those stories ...it's not so much the stories she told but how she told them to me......I am very happy she is finally resting in the arms of Bruno.........Hilda I'm sorry for your loss. :(

Dot was my Godmother. Bruno was my work ethic teacher. Pat was my first girlfriend. I learned a lot about life from each of them. Life seems too short when others we know and love proceed us. Those people we meet along our life who influence us so much are never forgotten. Dear Lord thank you for giving their time and wisdom. Amen

Dear Hilda, Dawn and families,
I was so relieved to hear from Hilde that your Grandmother refused medical procedures as she was ready to pass over to meet her Lord and be reunited with loved ones.
Dottie will live on in my memories as
the beautiful,funny redhead that let me vacation at the house in the hills.
Certainly these are only positive childhood memories because I would see my parents have a great time, too, laughing with Bruno and Dottie. (although I do recall stepping on a yellowjacket nest out in the back 40! )
May all your memories of Dottie and Bruno and Patti bring you comfort at this time.
Blessings to you all,
Valerie (Kroll)Melin
