So sorry to learn that "Dot" has passed away. Although I haven't seen her for decades, I've never forgotten how very kind and friendly she was to me, although I was a youngster when I lived near her. I remember when my cousin Connie Poynton, who lived upstairs in our house, took me over to see Dot's new hope chest, the first one I'd ever seen! Herbie was the same way -- friendly and pleasant always. We were on the bus together shortly after their daughter was born, and he was thoroughly delighted and proud. Sincere and profound sympathy to Dot's famiy. Mary Heaney, South Windsor, CT.
