This lovely lady was the warmth to my fridays for quite a few years. I loved her smile, her compassion, and her SWEET heart. I feel so blessed to have known her and my heart and prayers are with her awesome family. What a wonderful person and friend. My life was brighter because I knew her and I am so glad I got a chance to have her brighten my life!!

I often teased Tom that he got very lucky to have married such a beautiful woman, inside and out.
The truth is, her love for him was evident in the way
she looked at him and spoke of him. They were truly
blessed to have each other.
I can imagine how much it hurts Tom. Know that she
will always be with you and her love is forever.

I only met Dolly a few times at political events but I will never forget the tender affection with which Tom always talked about her. She made him happy!

Dolly always made me smile. She had a gift few have that made you feel comfortable when she was with you. I am blessed to have laughed with her and to have known her.
