Not sure what to say?

I was so sorry to hear of Dot's passing. She was my sister-in-law and I really loved her. We lost touch after my brother's death but my sister kept up with her off and on. Mike and Keith, and all the family have my sincere sympathy. Dot was a wonderful person and will be deeply missed.

I'm so sorry to hear of Dot's passing. I have known this lady since I was 6 years old and grew to love her as a family member. Her smile was the first thing you noticed about her. I remember when Mike was small and the day she brought Keith home from the hospital she was happy before but with both kids you sure could tell she loved them. Until my mom died she kept in touch with us and I'm so sorry I didn't keep up with her. Love you always Dot and rest in peace. Please let me know when her...

I met Dortothy or Dot was how I remember her. I met her when I was 6 years old and she was always family to me and John too. I even remember when Keith was born and Mike was my buddie when he was little. She loved her kids with her heart and soul and when people met her they either liked her or didn't and most did. I will always remember Dot and that great big smile of hers. Love you Dot and may you rest in peace.

She was a wonderful woman who will be dearly missed by all. When she smiled her complete face lite up. She always told you like it was but she did it for love not for spite. I love you Dorothy. You are in a better place now with all your friends and husband. Remember us and watch over your sons and grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Love Pam
