I was sorry to learn of his passing and not being able to attend his funeral. I had the pleasure of working with him for many years and I will miss our conversations, especially about high school football. He was truly one of the good guys and I was fortunate to have known and worked with him.

Irvin was always willing to listen and helped me with wise counsel anytime I called. He was not only a coworker, but also a friend. May God give the family strength through this. He will be dearly missed.

Irvin was a great friend when we were classmates and we remained friends through the years. I didn't see him very often but he was always kind and caring. He will be so missed by his family friends. My thoughts and prayers are with Roseanna and all the family now and in the weeks to come. He kept the faith and has now earned his wings.

Paul, as well as the rest of the family, has the complete sympathy of the Bromagen family in Bath County. May you always be able to recall the fond memories of growing up in Eastern Ky. May the Lord continue to bless the Dotson family.
