Not sure what to say?

I met this wonderful woman at Worcester State College. At the time time I ran the TV studio. Dot worked on a number of programs with me. My favorite was holiday special where we brought in children from Chandler Elementary and read the both How the Grinch Stole Christmas and The Night before Christmas. It was magical as was she. She left a life long impression on me. Belated condolences to her family. What a grand lady.

Rhoda and family,

So sorry to hear of the loss of your Mom. May your memories bring you comfort always.
Hugs to all!

We'd have great conversations.
She will be totally missed

With much love,

Mo, Rhoda, and Danny: My deepest sympathy to you and yours on the loss of your wonderful Mother. I loved Dot dearly as everyone who ever knew her did. This is the end of the era that held the most special people, Sis and Dot, who were friends since they were 5 years old! My heart goes out to you and I send my heartfelt condolences. I know they are laughing together right now! With Love, Mary Flynn Vessio

I am so very sad to hear about Dottie's loss. She was an amazing woman that was always there when you needed help. My husband traveled a lot and I was home by myself with two small kids. She would drop everything to come help. One time when my daughter was really sick and my son was only a few months old she stayed at my house for hours to take care of my son so I could take care of my daughter. She was always there for me. She was such a kind loving person and although I haven't seen...

Thank you for your wisdom during a difficult time.
