Henry and I send our deepest condolences. We were fellow-New Orleanians in SCC after Katrina. (There weren't many). We talked 'snowballs' for SCC (and "Amy's" of old...on Maple St in NOLA), and traded jokes at LAFF-A-LOT CLUB once or twice. Ned, we send wishes for fond memories of fun times with her. Please keep our email address and send us a joke occassionally!

So sorry to hear of the loss of Dottie. She did so much volunteerism in New Orleans--especially helping as Tulane's TEP and other Jewish sdvisory positions. The Crescent City Jewish News (ccjn.net) my wife (Arlene) is involved with her family and they produce a continuous/ongoing Jewish New Orleans site. I know they would place an obituary to inform New Orleans of Dottie's recent passing & could pass along when your Nola memorial service will be. Just submit specifics so my brother-in-law can write about her lifetime accomplishments. Send to Alan Smason([email protected]) Again sorry about your loss.
