Dottie, my heart aches for your laughter and sweetness. You had a tremendous heart that will be sorely missed by any that ever came into contact with you. I came to know you through my sister, Tina Roy, and I have never regretted one minute of our friendship. The shock of losing you so unexpectedly and so quickly and so young is still lingering. I really loved you and will always carry your memory in my heart. Please watch over us from heaven and keep us on the right path, we will be vigilant. Save Tina and me a place to be with you in heaven.
