So many great memories of Debbie & her entire family. Gonna really miss our monthly long phone conversations reminiscing about the good old days. She was so excited to buy the Big Bear property. Loved her like a sister! Keeping her and all of you in my prayers.

I remember as a child sitting with Dolly in their RV, which I loved because it had a heater and it was freezing out, eating cookies and reading a historical romance. I had asked her probably 50 or more rapid fire questions and she patiently answered every one. We talked about how old men never changed and how true love really existed. She and John are the epitome of a solid foundation and a wonderful couple. After losing my own grandmother when I was 10, she didn't fill the void, she made her own space in my heart. I will cherish her forever.

Dolly was a true and loyal friend.
Spent many hours as a coworker at Church events. A great leader of our prayer group. Made me feel I was part of family.
Taught me new family games like hand and foot, Mexican train.
She and John gave me one of my most treasured gifts on my Birthday many years ago. So many wonderful qualities this great Lady shared.
I will miss her so much. Love you Dolly

There are so many. I met Dolly "mom" 40 plus years ago. She was my best friends mom. Her smile was infectious. But when she wanted something done you did it.!!! She was always there. As a Girl Scout leader always made it fun and educational. I hope she finds mom and they can sit and read and watch over us all.

Dolly and I went to high school together! She always provided great stories on Mondays before class started as she would tell us about her weekend dates with John. We would have to explain to her why some things were so funny. Dolly had an innocence about her. We remained in touch through out the years, Dick and I visited them on our trips to CA to visit my family. John and Dolly stopped by to see us on their trip to Alaska! They drove! Our condolences to the Goit family! Memories will always be there!
