Dear friends
I want to relay my deep sympathy at the loss of Dorothy. Even though I knew her for only a few short months, she was the type of friend that is rare to find. She made me feel instantly welcome and included whenever she was around. I enjoyed listening to her interesting conversation, and I will miss that about her. She was kind and sincerely interested in all those around her, always asking about the well-being of others and inquiring what she could do to make them feel comfortable and happy. What a precious gift she gave to all of us. May God bring you peace as you mourn her loss.
Sincerely,
Betty Cummings

The mom I needed. It never mattered to her we weren't really related. She was still mom Patchett and I was one of her boys. A shoulder to cry on, someone to pray with, a delicious meal when I was hungry, a quiet place to rest and escape. A thousand beautiful memories of a lovely, wonderful, caring person. Surely you'll be forever missed. steve.
