Soror Banks was my first grade teacher at South Highland Elementary School. She has and always will have a special place in my heart. I was honored to be able to pledge the Anniston Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. where she was one of the Charter Members. She was a faithful Delta who will always be loved. She will always have a special place in Anniston Alumnae and will truly be missed.

My deepest sympathy in your loss of a wife, mother and grandmother.
I have just learned of Soror Banks' passing, and it grieves me to have not been able to attend her Omega Omega and homegoing services.
As you grieve, please know that I am remembering you and honoring the memory of my sister, Soror Dorothy M. Banks.
Soror Banks will remain in the chapter's heart forever.
With Love and Rememberance,
Wanda McAfee

I knew Mrs. Dorothy Banks from our days working together in the Presbyterian Women for Sheppards & Lapsley Presbytery (when I still lived in Jacksonville). She was a beautiful woman and always such a lady. I always appreciated the support she offered to me both as a woman and in our church work. She is with our God now and always. Peace be with your family.
