Not sure what to say?

Dot rented out her granny flat to my husband and I when we first got married in 2005. I can verify most of these traits, especially the cursing. One of our favorite Dot memories was when she told us to "go inside and screw". She was very unique!

I am so sorry to hear about Dot´s passing. My mother, Kate was one of Dot´s "little old lady adoptees" who was picked up while she walked to our home in Encinitas while carrying groceries (much to my dismay ) After that day they became fast and furious friends and Dot picked my mom up for church every Sunday for years until my mom passed in 2015. I loved Dot and can attest to her many expletives!! Carry on Dot, I will forever remember you and your incredible spirit.

I´m also here from TikTok so, I didn´t know your mother, but I feel like I did after this amazing obituary. What an incredible life she lived and you all did an amazing job honoring her. I know she left a huge hole in your hearts and lives but, man, she understood the assignment & did it well.

Wow! What an extraordinary woman and an extraordinary life! I just had to come here and follow the link after seeing her story on TikTok. I would´ve loved to met her. What it truly beautiful soul Godspeed Doy.

What a truly AMAZING human! I didn´t know Dot. Just listened to her wonderful obituary on TikTok and had to follow the link to find out more. I am from San Diego, in fact I grew up on Regal Rd. Across the street from the church where Dot´s Memorial was held. What a small world ! I´m inspired by her! Her children were certainly blessed to have her! So was Joe! All those other guys before him were fools to let her go! I hope She is looking down on all the attention she is getting now and...

God speed to Mrs. Dot, with prayers and love to her family. Honor her by taking over her work. Pickup some trash today on your walk, give someone a ride to church or the store this week, but most of all spread the word and the love Mrs Dot shared with all on a daily basis.

I'm here from tiktok, I saw her obituary and can't help but feel moved. She was a true gem. She was obviously loved and loved back hard. Prayers to her family. I'm sure she is truly missed

I did not know Ms. Dot, but I love her. What a life! The only thing "good" about her passing is that she left some living for the rest of us. I pray her family and loved ones and all the little old ladies she left behind celebrate her every time her name is spoken. Godspeed, Ms. Dot, and God bless your next journey.

We were blessed to know Dot through our church and because she gave each of our boys in their turn their first job. They would come and do her gardening for an hour a week and she always had a Sprite and a treat waiting for them. They got such a kick out of her, and also got to see a life filled with gusto and strong faith in God amidst such a colorful eventful life! Dot also loved the theatre and came to all the musicals our boys were in, and we are so grateful for her staunch support of them!
