My deepest sympathy to Dorothy's family. Dorothy and I were co workers at Jaymar. She was an absolutely wonderful woman always with a smile on her face. Rest in peace my friend.

I will truly miss seeing and talking with Miss Dorothy. She was the epitome of all mothers and all wives. It brought so much joy to my day when she'd come in. I felt as if I had gained a touch of class and elegance along with some new knowledge after chatting with her and no matter what was going on in her world, she was always so positive and also pleasantly kept it real lol. Dorothy radiated devotion, wholesomeness, and love which is clearly evident as her children are just as beautiful as she. It hurts my heart to know that I'll never see her come through that door again but I take comfort in knowing that Dorothy is absolute and complete now, enjoying the glory of heaven beside her Sylvester. What an unexpected and delightful gift to have met them both.
