Dorothy and I shared many happy memories together growing up. One I will never forget is watching her daughter Sheilon take her first breath. I spent many happy days and nights with Dot and her family. We lost touch for a few years, but always managed to find each other again. My biggest regret is not being with her to share her biggest battle, and losing the chance to say good-bye. I only hope that she knows how much I cared about her, that I will always keep her memory alive in my heart.
My heart goes out to you her family and children. My prayers and thoughts are always with you.
