I remember Dot as always having a
smile on her face and a funny conversation for you!
She was a genuinely nice person! Not only did we attend school together but we grew up in the same community (So. Anniston) and we share family members!
This is unbelievable and my heart breaks for this family and for Dots MANY friends!
I pray for the Lord to dispatch angels to comfort and keep them all during this sad time; for Him to mend their broken hearts and help them to find peace, His peace, in Jesus' name!
My love & condolences to the family!
Dot was truly loved! May she now sleep in heavenly peace!

Growing up in South Anniston Everyone knew each other. Families gathered together to enjoy each other´s company. Dot was a fun loving kid from that generation.
It saddened me to hear of her passing. My Thoughts and Prayers are With Her Family. Praying That Our Lord and Savior Sustains each of You in the days ahead.
