I can't believe it has been 5 years already. I know we all still miss you. Something will happen and it reminds me of you. I found 3 Top Value stamps last week. Went to Kristen's house and showed her. You, Miss Dottie was the first person we thought of. Then my mom. We talked about you two saving the stamps then redeeming them for something special. You told me be patient sometimes it takes a while before things happen. I can only imagine you being in good company and having the best times now. Love and miss you. Say hi to my daddy and mom. ❤

Dear Miss Dottie, You were my second mom. I will miss you and I love you. You always did everything you could for us. You gave your time and love to everyone you knew. You always helped with the Mokana things we had to do and made it fun. You had the BEST CHRISTMAS parties ever and made my favorite tuna sandwiches when I asked for them.Time to play canasta with Joan and the rest of the gang they were missing you. So glad that Dianne brought you to the party so our family could be with you one last time.
Love Always,
Jan

Mrs. Dottie, I have been blessed to have you as part of our life. You and your family have welcomed me with the warmest welcome. But most of all I remember the SMILES. Everytime time I saw you, no matter how you felt or what was going on you always had the most beautiful smile. You have passed that on to your children because they always have a smile to brighten anybody's day.
Love and miss you and thanks again for being part of my life.

There are too many memories I've had with grandma, I remember when I was young, it was a treat to play canasta with grandma, I also loved spending weeks at a time at her house, having ham and cheese sandwiches in the toaster oven with fruit punch, then going swimming in her pool, to this day I crave that combo, I remember walking down magazine street to catch thoth and Bacchus, I love you grandma and will miss you every day

My heart is heavy this morning hearing this news...I know, beyond a doubt that she is dancing in paradise. Miss Dottie was truly a remarkable woman, always kind and generous. She always had a positive thing to say, always taking time to talk to and enjoy the children. Truly love her. So thankful to have had the chance to know her ! She will truly be missed in our church family. Sending love and prayers to family and friends who loved her. We were all blessed to have known her. Big hugs !

I will always love and have missed you . Best childhood ever having you right nextdoor. You and mom conversating over the fence. Cried when I saw this ,but you're back with the gang now. Bowling on Tuesdays then lunch afterwards, priceless. You were always there for me. . I count myself blessed to have had the chance to hang out with you and mom..They were the best times of my life. Love you and miss you.

Prayers that Dottie’s family will be enfolded in God’s love and peace during a time of such sorrow. She was very wise, compassionate, loving, and wicked funny. Although I will miss Dottie’s physical presence in my life, I am so grateful for having received her love and friendship. She was an exceptional woman and her light touched everyone she met.

Grandma, you are with me always. You have always been there for me and this world has one less star to brighten the sky since you've been gone. I love you and I hope that you are in a place that brings you nothing but happiness. You are my hero and I will never forget you. I will always love you.

Your Grandson,

David Thiberville
