I met Dorothy Jo thru her best friend carolyn sadler a few years back and knew she loved the Lord. She sure could write some great songs. My favorite was "I See God" and now she truly does. My family and I send our well wishes to the family. I'm sorry I couldn't be there to say goodbye. One day we'll say hello instead.

I meet Dorothy Jo at Bro. Howard Dailey's church in Cookeville TN about 12 years ago. She was a wonderful lady who loved the lord and love to sing. It was in one of her services that I was saved. She will always hold a special place in my heart all of those that ever knew her.

What a beautiful person (inside and out). I had the great pleasure in meeting her on my many trips to Dollywood. I will miss not listening to her stories or hearing her sing. God bless her and her entire family.
