I knew Dot when I worked for the City of Apopka. My deepest sympathy to her family. She never failed to send cards with all these stickers I regret not getting together before. One Lesson I learned is not to procrastinate to tell your loved ones how much they mean to you. I hope she knows how much her friendship made to me through the years.##imported-begin##Sonia Dezaruba##imported-end##

I met you once,you held my hand and spoke the most wonderful things about your friend, Carol Sue Messina and her husband Al. Although you were so close to entering heaven, you were thinking of someone else and how much you loved them. You will always remain in my prayers. I am so thankful I got to look into those beautiful eyes and tell you how special you were. Rest in Peace Dear Dorothy.##imported-begin##Robert & Edna Johnson##imported-end##
I will truly miss my "Mama Dots!" She was always encouraging me & lifting me up with her positive, cheery personality. I am glad we kept in touch after working together almost 30 years ago. It's been a real joy to have known her, and I will always cherish the uplifting notes, Christmas tree ornament & the wonderful visit that my family and I had with Dorothy & her mom a few years ago! May you rest in peace & know that you were loved by many!##imported-begin##Linda DeVries##imported-end##
