So sorry to hear of Dot’s passing. She was a very sweet and kind lady.
Paul and Kay, so sorry for the passing of your mother. She was always such a sweet person to me and my family. I have a lot of fond memories growing up just across the road. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Love you.
There never was a sweeter woman, who I loved like my own Mom for the last 33 years. You will be dearly missed.
So sorry for your loss, prayers for the family. RIP Dorothy
God bless you all in your time of sorrow, as a young boy I always loved going to Mrs. Dorothy’s house. She always had such a sweet smile.
