Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
We have sweet memories of Dottie when we attended Trinity Baptist Church in Schenectady, New York. She had a servant’s heart and when you chatted with her, she had a knack of making you feel extra special. There are many wonderful things we admire about her, the number was her love for Bud, her children and grandchildren. The beauty of Jesus radiated from her all the time. Though we hadn’t seen her for many years, she will be missed because of the gracious lady she was. Prayers for Bud and the whole family. Kathy, Rob & Christine Lundberg Fredericksburg, VA
