Dot was the sweetest lady in the world! I adored her and loved her so much. Loved her daisy dukes (shorts) she would wear, she always stayed young!

I am so sad to hear that she passed and my heart goes out to her family.

Dot just adored her family and enjoyed people. She will never be forgotten.

My deepest sympathy and love

Though I only knew Dot for a month or two, the Lady I met was such a kindhearted person. She greeted me with smiles and hugs. She would ask me how my family was doing and she would tell me about hers. I didn't know Dot personally until I bought the Home she was living in, and from there I found out that our families had a past. It saddens me that I only knew you for the time I did, but I am glad for that time. I am sad for those who are left without you, and I hope that they will always feel your Love, warmth and presence as they move forward. Until we meet again Dot, shine on.
