Dear Dottie, Bud and family
I was looking forward to visiting with Aunt Dottie on my next visit to Florida. We had a wonderful visit a few years ago and in the interim we kept in touch by mail. She was so good to us when we were kids. I will keep her in my heart forever.
Love, Roberta

Although I hadn't seen Aunt Dottie in nearly 35 years, I still remember her kindness and gentle warmth. She will me missed by all, but we are glad that she touched our lives and has been called home to be with her parents, brothers, and sisters. God speed, Aunt Dottie....we love you!
