To Doty's Family,
We know your hearts are heavy and yet we know your hearts are filled with the goodness of God for allowing Doty to be with us for 84 years! Yes we will miss her smile, yes we will miss her playing on the piano/organ, but she is in the best place now, playing for that Heavenly Choir. God bless you and remember when she took her last breath on this side, she took her first breath for eternity.

To the family of sister Doty,
You have my condolences at this time of great loss. I have always admired her since I was a small child and when she taught my son music in school as a little boy he also fell in love with her infectious smile. To be absent from the body is to be present with The Lord. I know she will be in heaven playing a musical instrument and directing the heavenly choir.

To the family and friends of Doty, may God provide his loving comfort during this time. Doty played piano at my wedding. My husband I have been married now for 26 years. She was a very special Lady.

My condolences to Doty's family. If anyone can get the voices of the heavenly choir together it is Sister Bennett. She was truly one of God's faithful servants.
