Bishop Dorsey always had a smile and a good word for me as a younger Priest just having arrived in Miami! He invited me to lunch one day and we had the best of conversations and I was so at ease I almost forgot that I was talking to a Bishop! Forever Remembered! Thank you, Bishop Dorsey!!!

Bishop Dorsey was a fine man. I always referred to him as, " M'Lord Bishop" in the English fashion.

Remembering with love, a gentle man who never lost his boyish enthusiasm, and who truly found his calling in life and enjoyed it to the end...he was at his very best when at the altar, saying mass, and his whole heart and soul went into it, and he wouldn't have been anywhere else...a beautiful soul...
