Hi Donna,
I'm so glad I had the chance to meet your mother on several occasions. She added warmth to the rooms she entered. She also had a joie de vivre that she passed on to you, as a good parent does as a role model. My wish for you is that you will often find fond memories of her "popping up" in the years to come as you continue your life's journey. Blessings to you and your whole family from Lois and me.

Dear Beverly, Donna, & all the family - We are so sorry to hear of Dorothy's passing. What a lovely, elegant lady she was, who is forever in our memories. I will always remember how she "rocked" our BGLV fashion show as a standout model! May God give you strength at this difficult time, & may her memory be eternal.
