As kids you would always take us camping, hiking and whatever we felt like doing. Sundays, we would but chocolate peanut clusters, Pepsi and get a Disney movie. We would eat popcorn,eat peanut clusters and drink Pepsi while we watched our Disney movie. Another memory was at Andy´s Creek. Mom would shoot the snakes and they were poisonous water moccasins. My sister Debbie would squeeze whatever was in their stomachs out (gross) we were kids. We would swim. Jump off the trees into the lake and just have a blast. My dad would take us fishing. Those were the days. No iPhones or tablets. Just pure made up fun! I love u more then anything mom! We gave u a hard time as kids but u did a good job.

Dottie was an honest and true friend. She always had a smile and a warm greeting. I met her when I moved to Los Banos CA. We had so much fun and developed a friends' dinner group. Great times were had. Love and miss you Dottie.

I have such great memories of Dottie, I am sure she will be out at our property. We are dedicating a bench in her memory. She would sit with all her fur babies, and just relax. we are having a plaque made up. This is what it will say "This bench is dedicated in loving memory to " Dorothy Darlene Summers Klockow
Those who touch our lives stay in our hearts forever. "Dottie we will miss you, the Daughtons"
Jan 2, 1939 - Oct 4,2022".
