It is so hard to lose someone who meant so much to so many, but when I read Dottie's obituary, I am reminded that all these great and descent people that she leaves behind are her and Bob's legacy. She was a true matriarch of the Struble family, and a great friend and neighbor to mine. Thinking of you all during this difficult time.
