Miss Dot lived an amazing and meaningful life and was important to so many people.. So many memories and stories of Bobby and me as young boys with Miss Dot at the center of that universe. I was able to visit her in 2017. We sat in the kitchen that holds so many memories, and where she took care of the household, and where she always took care of Mister Bobby. For me as a young boy and Bobby's friend, I got to be just a small part of her amazing life. She was always wise, caring, and kind....

So upset to hear of Ms.Dot's passing. She was truly my second mother. I spent many good times with little Bobby. Mr.Bobby and Ms. Dot treated me like a second son. Being friends with Bobby was a gift I want forget for a second family. Love you Ms. DOT.

Your mother was a beautiful lady and Such a part of my neighborhood memories. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Paulette and family, what a wonderful legacy your Mom left for you girls and Bobby!!! Miss Dot always a sweet smile and a kind word. You all are in my prayers

So glad we had the privilege of participating in the Birthday Parade!
Only God knows the many lives she touched through the years and made better by her "touch". She was one of a kind in the best of every way.

May athe Lord keep your family in His Loving arms and Comfort you in the coming days through your pain of such a great loss. In Jesus name Amen.

❤❤❤ Paulette. Have had little stroke. Will miss service.

One day while she was substituting at PHS someone put a huge scratch in her brand new car! A short time later while teaching another class a young girl told of seeing a car so beautiful that she had to "key" it! Miss Dot rose...
