I have many fond memories of Dorothy as we served together in the local chapter of the Society of Human Resource Managers (HRSHRM) formerly TPIRMA. She was such a professional and genteel Southern lady and was truly a delight to be around. My sympathies to her husband and daughter and family. God be with you at this difficult time, but rest assured she would want you to celebrate her life (and perhaps even go shopping). God Bless

I am sorry I can not attend the funeral of my good friend, Dorothy. Dorothy and I shared many lunches and drinks after work. I worked at another bank; but we were both in Human Resources. I will cherish her friendship forever.
