To the family: Sister Dorothy Rouse will always be remembered as my friend and sister in the Lord. Her family and I worshiped the Lord together back in the old days of West Side Church of God in Christ, out on the hill as we called it. We had some good times together. She was the young people's friend back then. We could talk to her about anything. We use to gather at her and her husband, James, house to eat and socialize. Her Daughter, Christine, is my Goddaughter, and has been since I was a young girl at the church. Dorothy will be missed. Please accept my condolence. She is in a better place, with the Lord.
