I wanted to express my deepest sadness in the passing of Dot. Loved all those summers at Leisurewood with the campfires, patio talks, golf cart parades and pancake breakfasts! She was such a wonderful person and made us all feel good! My mom and dad will truly miss her also! I am very sorry for your loss! God must have needed another angel for the choir!
