I’ll always love Mrs Dot. Sadly I moved away and wasn’t able to see her over the last year or so but thought of her quite often. She made me feel very loved and I enjoyed every moment that I spent with her. I’ll never forget her kindness and love. My condolences to the family. She loved yall very much.
