Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

We will sincerely miss our dear friend Dot, she was a wonderful christian woman with strong faith in her God. She will be remembered for her love, kindness, beautiful smile and her love for God, her family and friends.

Our love and prayers reach out to her many friends and family (especially Dena) during this time of great loss.

May God be your strength during this time.

All our love and prayers, Pastor Jim and Brenda Tadlock and Visalia New Life Church

My heart goes out to the family, especially Dena.. For the past 8 years i've been lucky to have Dot in my life, she has always been very important to me, i love her so very much and miss her terribly.. It's tragic, but now she's in heaven with Dean, he was always a mommy's boy, and we will join them one day.. I really wish i could be there, cause Dot was always there for me any and everytime i ever needed her.. My prayers are with the family.. Love always, Danielle Gott
