My deepest condolences. I will always remember "Mrs. Butler" as my favorite teacher at Westboro High School. She was a warm loving lady with the best qualities of a good teacher, always positive and full of encouragement for everyone.

My sympathy goes to all of Dot's family members and friends. She was such a lovely, vibrant lady who instilled a love of art in so many of her students over the years. I will miss my chats with her at the Willow's exercise room!

Our deepest condolences. Your mom was a genuinely sweet lady and it was our pleasure to be able to know her. We will miss her.

Dear Eric and Family,

Your mother was a very special lady, and we will miss seeing her around town. We were both her students and were always amazed that she remembered us and would always stop to chat. Our sympathy to all of you in your loss.

To all of her wonderful family, I am sorry to hear of your loss of a very special person. My mom and she enjoyed a long friendship, starting back in Needham school days and, with our families in Westborough. So many nice memories. May she be at peace.

Dot was one of the major influences in my life, while growing up in Westborough. She always had a smile and a spare moment to spend with me. She will be missed.
