My condolences to Jarvis and Kevin... and to all in the Jefferson and Tilton families on the loss of your beloved Dorothy. I think that I just missed the opportunity to meet your mom Mrs. Jefferson in person, and I'm sorry to have missed out on that.

May peace that transcends all understanding be bestowed upon the family and the love you have sustain you.

To the Jefferson family. So sorry for the loss of your beautiful mother. May God bless your family.

To Dorothy`s family: please accept my deepest condolences on your loss. Dorothy was a special, formidable person. I used to see her and Jack at the Goochland YMCA regularly bright and early in the morning. I so admired Dorothy´s persistence. I´ve been missing her smile there for some time. She reminded me of my mother. Please take good care of yourselves and each other, especially during this sad time.

You mom was so wonderful to me during one of the most difficult time in my life for that I will always love her. Peace to the family she will never be forgotten.

We send our condolences to Jonathan and the entire family. May the mighty god we serve give you peace and strength during this time.

Jarvis and family, I´m very sorry for your loss. May your hearts be lighter with the love being sent to you from so many who care. May the blessings of special memories bring peace and offer some comfort. With sincere sympathy and aloha, Alison

Condolences to you my ASBC usher sister!
