Dear Allen and Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I remember Mary Lou as a gracious and lovely lady. I will always treasure the times I spent with your family. She was a blessing to all who knew her.

Dearest Dobbins Family: My sister is gone yet her spirit lives on in her wonderful family and devoted friends. I celebrate Mary Lou's life remembering wonderful and unique experiences with her and the valued lessons she taught subtly through example. My thoughts are with Allen, Debby, Diana and Deedee now and in the future. Love, Little Brother, Garth

A wonderful high school friend. Bon Voyage.

My deepest sympathy to the Dobbins family! I was blessed to have Mary Lou as a teaching partner and friend. She was also my daughter's teacher for two years. We both have great memories of times we shared with Mary Lou. We will always remember her boundless energy and great smile!

Dear Allen & Family,
I am sorry for your loss of Mary Lou, but happy that she has finally escaped Alzheimer's Disease. She was such a cultured and vivacious woman, even when she was a participant at Trinity Place. We all looked forward to seeing her and hearing about her many life experiences. I'm sure she will be truly missed by all of her family. God bless you.

So sorry for your loss. I have fond memories of teaching with Mary Lou at Stephenson. She was a positive force in the classroom.

With respect and admiration for a life lived well. Blessings to you all.
