Paul,Robert and Family,

I am so saddened to hear of Dorothy's passing. I only worked with her for a short time but was so amazed at her zest for life and love of all of those around her. I was blessed to have the opportunity to meet and work with her and will never forget how she truly put the needs of others above her own. She will be dearly missed and you are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Amanda Dudley, Social Worker/Raleigh Court Health & Rehab Center.

Paul, Robert and Family,

We know that Dorothy is rejoicing with our Heavenly Father right now and that gives us a peace that passes all understanding. We too already miss her and will continue to miss her. She was always so full of life and so encouraging as we shared so much through the years. Wish we could be there but you all know why we aren't although please know that we are and will continue to pray for each one of you. We know Wayne and Amy, our son and daughter-in-law both wanted to be there but their work schedules won't allow them to do that. We are all there with you all in spirit and prayer. Please let us know if there is anything we can do from here in TX and we do hope you all will come visit us. Robert, hopefully when you make that next business trip to Houston, we can visit with one another. God bless you and may He show his wonderful love and peace to you all during this very difficult time.

Lovingly, In Christ,
Steve and Judy
