Dottie loved to travel, never meeting a stranger and helping anyone she found in need. Always wearing a smile she never shyed away from lending a helping hand. Dottie’s greatest accomplishment was the role of mother and grandmother. She devoted herself to the care and support of her daughter and grandson.

The family of Dottie and Vergena are humbled and appreciative of the support communicated and the care given them by the friends and neighbors. The class of 1979 have shown a special care to our family.  We thank those who gave the anonymous donations.  This gesture is of immeasurable value and speaks significantly about the impact of the life we commemorate.
