What an amazing woman. Fun to golf with, and a hoot in cards! Dolly always had that twinkle in her eyes. She will be missed, and remembered fondly. Heartfelt condolences to Mary and the rest of her family.

So many wonderful memories of a very special lady! Always a smile on her face and a determination that far surpassed many younger than she. Regret not getting over to see her more, but life got in my way. She takes a little piece of my heart with her. Fair sailing my dear friend! My condolences to the family.
