Dorothy Banks

It dawned on me that Dorothy's gorgeous smile wasn't there to greet me when I walked by recently and put off checking to see what was going on. She was such an amazing lifeforce and kind individual. I haven't seen Anna since we were kids playing together in the courtyard ( I live opposite of them) but the Bank's were my favorite neighbors ever. May her memory be a blessing to all that knew her.

I never met your mother, but I live nearby but sharing smiles and waves with her gave me the motivation to walk around Red Rock Hill nearly every day during the first couple years of Covid. In Judaism, we say "may her memory be for a blessing" and her lovely smile was a blessing for all who saw it. Erika

From the first time I met Anna and Mrs. Banks 49 years ago, they have always both epitomized pure, timeless beauty and class. My heart goes out to you, Anna, my dear friend of nearly five decades, and your lovely family, too. I'm so glad your mom got to share in the joy of Greg and Haven. I know your mom is sending you supportive, encouraging, and loving beams from heaven. What an amazing legacy she leaves in you and Haven. XO

My parents, Ralph & Mary Ellen Prime, spoke highly of Dr. and Mrs. Banks over the years, ever since they started attending Grace in the 1980s. I know they enjoyed their Sunday relationship with your parents, Anna, and I've always remembered the many kindnesses your parents, and you, extended to my parents over their shared worship. Take good care of yourselves during this time. ~ Lynn Prime

Dearest Anna and family, I will always remember Dorothy´s effervescent smile and the kindness she bestowed upon me every Sunday at church. It was special to see her with you at the Cathedral recently, a very lovely memory of your beautiful mom.
