Jerry, Kevin and John:
Jim and I are broken hearted over the passing of Dottie. She was a good friend and we'll always remember the wonderful trips we took all together. But she is now out of pain and resting peacefully. We'll see you on Wednesday.

Dottie's family,
My prayers are with all of you. I had the pleasure of working with Dottie many years ago in our Health, Safety and Environment (HSE)Dept. at Shell. I loved her dearly. She was a pleasure to work with and always willing to help, not just with work. Afraid I probably won't be able to make the services, but you will all be in my prayers.

Dear Jerry and Family,
Please know that you have my heartfelt sympathy for your loss. May it comfort you to know that Dottie is with our Heavenly Father where there is no pain or suffering.
It breaks my heart that I can't be with you at this time, but you are in my prayers and I love you all very much.
Bonnie
