I loved Dottie. She was the sweetest person, she never failed to ask if my husband was home or overseas and how the kids were. She never thought of herself, only others. She will be greatly missed. God Bless her family, prayers are with you always.

Sue, Marsha and Steve,
Your mom was a dear friend over many, many years. I often think of her \”words of wisdom\” and treasure the times we talked and solved the worlds problems over cups of coffee. Thinking of all of you and know that you will miss her. So will I. She was a smart, courageous woman who spoke her mind without fear.

I was sorry to read about Dottie. She and I had good times on the tennis court. She had a lot of patience for my unorthodox game. Plymouth has lost a stalwart. Marie Albertson
