What a wonderful woman. Dory touched my heart in many ways and during times of great heartache. I´ll never forget her, and I´ll never forget her unwavering faith. The world will be a little less vibrant, but her world is now immensely more beautiful because she is with her son and her Lord and Savior. While our hearts are heavy, we can know she is so very LIGHT right now! God speed...
