    This earth lost a great prayer warrior and precious Child of God this morning. But I rejoice that she is in the presence of the Lord that she loved and served for so long. I will never forget the many blessings that came my way through my dear friend. I will greatly miss those earnest prayers of hers for my family, but today she can put her arms around the ones I miss so greatly. My sincere regrets to her beloved family in their loss.

I loved Dorothy and I love you all.
