Dear Mervin,
You know Dorothy was "Mother" to so many of us for many years. She taught the Agape class faithfully for so many years, and she was the perfect example of a Godly woman. We are honored to have sat and listened at her feet. She is truly missed, but there is no question that she ran straight into the arms of Jesus, rejoicing.
We love you,
Glenn & Becky Ballos

Dear Mervin,
I am so sorry for your loss. My Mother, Dot Harris, was in the room with Miss Dorothy at the Health Center. We both thought so much of Miss Dorothy and her winning ways--her love of chocolate and milkshakes, but most of all, her love of the Lord.. I always enjoyed seeing you during your faithful visits which were right on schedule.
As you probably know, Mother passed on February 10th at the Health Center. Mervin, please accept my sincerest sympathy. She was a grand Christian lady in the truest sense of the word and we are all hurting at your loss.
Sincerely,
Jan Harris
