If life is a puzzle, every moment of her kindness was a uniquely shaped piece,
Whether the love in her smiling glance or the joy she felt as she danced so light on her feet,
or the lick of a stamp and envelope, as she mailed each card with ease.

No one saw all of the fragments but each of us holds a piece of that puzzle inside,
And our gift to her today is coming together and allowing each fragment of her love to collide,
We put together the full picture of how much one person's love can be magnified.

But without her beside us, there will always be a piece missing that continues to call,
Her deep love of family, friends, chocolate, the BeeGees and Steelers football,
Our dearest Grandmother will live forever in the hearts and minds of us all.

I'm so very sorry for your loss! Dotty was such an incredible woman and she always remembered us each and every time we were there. My dad owning his own business a few blocks away we practically grew up at eat n park in parnassus where we had dinner 3-4 nights a week. She will be greatly missed by all.

One of the best mother in laws a girl could ever wish for. She was full of love; love for her family, love for friends and neighbors, love for her job, love for her customers, love for playing cards, love for hearing your latest achievement, love for cooking, love for greeting card giving, and LOVE FOR RED LIPSTICK KISSES! Because of her love for me I am a better person. Go forth and put red lipstick on and kiss a love one.
Will miss you mom, Traci

Dottie was one of the sweetest people you could ever hope to meet. Was always a joy having her as our waitress. Made it a point that all her customers received a card from her during the holidays. They just don't make them like Dottie anymore. She will be missed.
