So sorry for your loss. Dottie was such a wonderful lady, always a smile on her face. I've had the privliage of knowing Dottie for quite a few years. She will be missed by a lot of people. R.I.P. Dottie.
so sorry to see Dottie''s obit in paper, but at same time, my faith, and I pray the faith of the entire family, will look to Heaven and see that she is once again united with Bill. Great folks, since I retired from post office nearly 6 yrs ago, Dottie was one of the positive influences which sustained me through those 31 plus years with USPS. Miss her, but lifting her up to Jesus with thanksgiving in my heart for her role in my life. Hope all of you are well.
I offer my deepest condolences for your loss.These times prove to be the hardest for us, when our loved ones fall asleep in death. God's word the Bible gives us encouraging information regarding death. At Acts 24:15, John 5:28,29, 1Corinthians 15:26, and Revelation 21:4. May just a few of these Bible truths bring you comfort at this time.
Our Deepest Condolences. We knew Dottie through the years, and will miss her dearly.
