I am saddened by ber departure but I know she lived a very full life. I was a care giver of hers for just a short while some years back but the chats we would have I'll never forget... and politics...yes , we watched John McCain's service on tv together! She was very into that! Good to know she is in heaven with ber loved ones! RIP dear Dottie! Such a lovely dear person you are! Heaven is lucky to have you!

We remember Dottie as an active member at St. Luke's, among those who welcomed us when we first tested the waters at church in about 2008. She was friendly, pleasant to share information and her impressions of St. Luke's at that time. We also recall her slowing, with vision issues and some memory challenges. May she now rest at peace, her work on earth completed, her contributions to community life generously shared.
