My thoughts and prayers to Dot's family. My mother, Helen Horsley was one of Dot's customers for many years. She followed her every where she moved around to work. My husband and I would run into Dot and Alma here at the beach and many places. Always enjoyed seeing her. Hold the memories you have during your time of loss. Our sympathy to you. Dock & Cheri H.

I Love you Ms Dot. I was honored to be your best friend. I'm glad I had you and Linda Cushman in my life. I'm so glad we spent every Monday out to lunch and shopping trips, thank you for the laughs. Spending our Birthdays at Out Back Restaurant, celebrating with a Thunder down under cake. And of course the blooming onion and coconut shrimp. Acting goofy at our age. We could be so silly at times. They were the best times. Having lunch at the Red River grill or just dessert and coffee......The 3 musketeers as you called us. I will see you again. You are truly home now. I enjoyed all the times we discussed Jesus. How He was always our #1 subject. Always thanking God for another day and each other. My heart is overwhelmed by you leaving. But I know it was God's plan to call you home. You are forever my friend, thank you for the great memories...I know you are rejoicing with Linda Cushman and your sweet little Mama. I know you are giving Jesus hundreds of hugs and telling Him how much you love Him. Give Him lots for me. Thank you Ms Dot...I will see you again my beautiful friend, It is only the beginning. I'll meet you at the Pearly Gates of Heaven some day! Love 💘 you...... To the family I pray God gives you comfort and peace in this time of great sorrow.
