My dear Aunt Dot,
You were such a blessing my entire life and I have beautiful memories of you and my Uncle Gus to cherish forever. I know there was a wonderful reunion in heaven with you, Uncle Gus, Mom and Dad together! Love you always!

I am very thankful that I got to know Ms. Dot. I met her thru Neal and his dad Clyde in Meadville, MS . I am also very thankful that I got to surprise her on her last birthday celebration at the Dinner Bell in McComb, MS. She loved to eat there whenever she had the chance! She wasn’t expecting to see me, so when I met her at the car, she had tears in her eyes and was happy to see us. Ms. Lynda had helped in the surprise. I’m also very thankful for her too. That is just one memory I will forever hold in my heart. Ms. Dot will be missed a lot but it gives some comfort knowing she is with the Lord and will be forever in our hearts!
