Dorothy was my sister in the faith! I shall always cherish our last meeting at church. With tears in our eyes and loving words expressed as we hugged we felt a nearness to each other that only sisters in the faith can understand! She was an acceptional lady and loved by many! To those of you of her family, I pray God gives you the strength to cope with this great loss! Most sincerely, Addie Hickman
