Just wanted to say I am sorry for your loss. I think everyone who knew Dorothy loved her. I always remember when I saw Dorothy she had a big grin on her face and seem to enjoy life. She will be missed by all.

Mrs. Caupp, I love you deeply. You will always be in my heart. You will be missed more than you know by me and by so many other people. You and your family were an extension to the Moore family, I grew up with you. And then when my child came along, you made wonderful memories for her too. She will never forget all the times you made her special favorite food, Mac-n-cheese, just because we were visiting with my mom. And I'll never forget you training me on my very first job. You had so much patience with me. You helped me start my journey in the working world and taught me so much. And my memories go on and on. You're a very special and wonderful woman. This will not be the end for us, for I know you loved God. One day, we will see each other again and we will embrace.

Mrs. Caupp was an amazing woman with such a kind heart. She was always like another grandma in our family with her being across the street and best friends with my grandma Gladys. I always enjoyed visiting with her and for all of the family I am so sorry for your loss, you could always tell how proud she was of all her family! I dont hardly remember a family event when I was younger with out the Caupp family there also, we all were like extended family, and she will be deeply missed by so many people!
