Aunt Dorothy used to come and spend the night with us when we were younger. I will always remember her laugh and how she carried her “pocket book”. Dad told me that her and my mom were good friends and that Dorothy introduced them . Thank you Aunt Dorothy. I know you are with many loved ones now but more importantly your in the arms of your Lord. Until we meet again. Love Brenda

Precious aunt Dorothy, so quiet and humble, so completely devoted to God. We loved to see her laugh, and she had such an easy smile. We miss aunt Dorothy for a little while.

My sweet Aunt Dorothy. I’ve learned so much from her even still just going through her things I’m still learning. I miss her daily. She is always on my mind. She was so caring and loved helping others. If we could all be like her we wouldn’t have any problems in this world.

I first met Dorothy over 60 years ago when she and her mother attended church at Bryant Assembly of God. I was about eight years old. My sisters and I attended a Bible class that she held in their home for children after school. She was a very kind and gentle soul that loved her Savior with all her heart, and I know she is resting now in the arms of Jesus. I pray for peace and comfort for her family.

Sending our condolences. I have fond memories of our visits to Arkansas and of Aunt Dorothy visiting us in CO. One of my favorite memories was on a visit to Arkansas after Gabe and I were married. As quiet as Aunt Dorothy often was, she sure got a laugh from the Garfield comics! Gabe and I think of that a lot because it also reminds us of dad. We are praying for you all!

My thoughts and prayers are for Waneta and family, especially Christa who lovingly cared for Dorothy during her last days here on earth. I know that Dorothy has been assigned a front row seat at the King's throne, and she definitely deserves it. We will miss you Dorothy.
