To Dora's family,
Dora was like a family member. I have known her for many years, she lived across the street from us. Dora & my sister Gina were the "wolfpack". Her laughter and calling me "ugh ugh" will be one of many memories I will cherish. Love you my dear Dora. RIP & enjoy a happy reunion with your daughter. Psalms 23

For each thorn, there's a rosebud...
For each twilight — a dawn...
For each trial — the strength to carry on,
For each storm cloud — a rainbow...
For each shadow — the sun...
For each parting — sweet memories when sorrow is done

Dora was a beautiful person, always smiling and having a kind word to say to others. She is going to be miss at Harris Memorial CME in Dayton Ohio.
May God comfort Benjamin, the family and friends during this difficult time?

"In the same way, let your light shine before people in such a way that they will see your good actions and glorify your Father in heaven." (Matthew 5:16, Internation Standard Version)

To the family of Dora Williams-Booker:

First of all, my sincere condolences on Dora's transition. She was such a beautiful person, who really loved the Lord; Dora's light shined and radiated as such. The last time that I saw her in church, she just gave me this gigantic hug, and we told each other that we loved each other. Little did I know that would be the last time that I would see her on this side of heaven. May your memories sustain you through this time. God bless and keep you and continue to keep the faith...that would be what Dora wanted.
