Even though 3 years have passed it seems like yesterday. Mr and Mrs Mullins had such a beautiful time together. I was always happy to see their big family gathering around them. I will meet you again one day my dear acquaintance. Ellen Creel

Dorothy was a sweet beautiful soul to my husband Ken and myself at the hickory woods in Antioch. It was a privilege to know her.

Dot was a very good friend. I have always enjoyed the many years I worked for Robert and her. They came to my kids graduations and many cookouts. She always had the best advice and made me laugh. She was beautiful inside and out. I will miss her. She had such a big heart . My thoughts and prayers are with the whole family.

A wonderful childhood memory for me was being chauffeured around in a wood-paneled station wagon full of kids driven by Mrs. Dot. She was always the perfect example of kindness, humor and devotion. She will forever live in a special place in my heart.

When I was in high school, I parked in what was then the Smyrna Public Library lot on Walnut. At the end of the day, I tried to get in my car to go pick up my little brothers and take us all home, but my keys were locked in my car. Mrs. Mullins worked in the library at that time, and she was so kind to let me borrow her car, pick up everyone, go home, get keys and come back. She lived her life so others could see Christ in her. I’m so sorry for Mr. Mullins and his family... I know you all are hurting and will miss her. I pray that God will comfort you and ease your suffering. Mr Mullins you were always a good friend to our family and our father, Horace Heath. God bless you. ❤
