Dottie and I were friends in high school in Mt Carmel Illinois. We shared book keeping class. She could make me laugh and turn red at the most inopportune time, Sorry I did not keep in touch with her over the years. Rest in peace my friend.Vernon James

Dottie, you will surely be missed. We had a lot of good times, a few bad ones, but the good ones far outweighed the bad ones. Rest in peace.....Wayne
