My fondest memories of Dot include her being there when my son was born and her being there at the ultrasound to find out that he was a boy. She helped me set up signs on the road to alert Daddy of his coming and the fact that he was going to have a son. She was always at the ball games (sometimes we traveled together), and she even babysat when my kids were small. Dot was truly the "baby whisperer". She was always a woman of the heart, one who paid attention to lasting things and people other than material things. She was truly a woman of God who had little nuggets of inspiration as well as some solutions and a word in a time of trouble, just being there. When I was going through a rough time in my life, Dot and I had many phone conversations, and I recall calling her during a specific tragedy, and only her. She always listened. She didn't say anything unless she knew it would be uplifting or of some help. We spoke in February of 2011. I was in a horrible and sad place in my life and she agreed to take me in for a while. When I arrived, I knew that I was with family, and Dot proved to be a great friend in that she was there throughout my stay as a good friend and exercise partner, project coordinator (she was much more crafty than I will ever be). She made Christmas special, we laid in the sun for hours talking and laughing, we took fun day trips, shopped, painted, you name it. One of the things that will stick in my mind is that she was there sitting in the same spot every time I came home from work, no matter what time. It really meant a lot to me, and I tried to tell her often how thankful I was for her. She was not one to accept praise. She just wanted to be. I know her grandchildren were her world, as she spent hours going through and printing pictures and making sure all of her memories were safe. I know her children were her jewels. She loved them so much, and invested much more than things in them. I have really learned a lot from Dot. She acted in a time of need for a friend, and for that I will forever be grateful. You will be missed, Dot. I love you. Thank you.
