I met Ms. Epperson in 2005 as part of the nursing program I was studying at the time. Since then I have visited her often and grew to have a close bond with her that continued to blossom in the years since. I will fondly remember the times that I have spent with this wonderful person and I'm greatly saddened by the loss of the friend that I grew to love like family. If anyone has any information concerning funeral arrangements or her final resting place, I would be very grateful if you could post it here or contact me through this site so that I may visit her, I have enabled my email address. Thank you and God bless.

Although I have never met Dorothy personally, I have thought of her often with the delightful/entertaining stories told to us by Linda Unseth. Linda has been her guardian angel in life. I shall never forget the cats!
