Not sure what to say?

We are sorrowful, yet joyful, over Dot’s many years of joyfulness, loving & sharing the Lord with others, thankful for her sound mind to her last days.
She & Buddy were our neighbors and fellow church goers for some years and we were fortunate to be close neighbors and friends during those earlier years.
May all who come behind her love & serve God WITH HER JOY!!!
God Bless you, her family, mightily!!!

Debra Miller and Betty Graham in B2

So sorry for you All, such a sweet lady, Praying for all Family
