As a longtime member of the First Christian Church, I remember Dotty. She was a really neat person, friendly and pleasant. and she always had a smile on her face. God Bless her family at this special time.

To the family,
May God blss you, keep you safe in this time of sorrow and have his arms aroung you to comfort you! Dorothy, was a wonderful lady, whose smile lit up the room, and always made me smile. I am glad, I had the privilege to take care of her at the Brunswick! She was such a joy to have and is very sadly missed by me, as well as others. I loved her like my own family! Prayers for you all and God bless!

Dotty and my mother were very close friends and Dotty was such a comfort to my mother in her last weeks. I have many fond memories of Dotty and Clair and all the projects on Sixth St. I am sorry to hear of her passing and I know she lived a good Christian life.

A dinner guest at Gammy's house - she cooked for 6; she was only 99 then - I asked her favorite hymn to play for her. After a few reflective moments, she announced "He Lives". And you do, dear Gammy, because He does.
