Lawrence and Bobby, you have my deepest sympathy in the loss of your mother. Living next door to you'll makes me feel like family. Mrs. Dorthy taught me a lot of things most of all how to respect myself and to always act like a lady. I truly thank her for that something you will never forget. Death leaves a headache no one can heal but love leaves memories that no one can steal. To be absent in the body is present with the Lord. Remember the good times cheris them in your heart forever. Weeping may endure for a night but joy will come in the morning. She fort a good fight, she ran her race victory is her reward.Weeping may endure for a night but joy will come in the morning. Canty-Hill has loss another legend. Sleep on Mrs. Dorthy take your rest we love you but God loves you best.

There is no measure of assurance that life goes on.But I,m sure Mrs Dorothy is resting peacefully. She fought a good fight,she kept the faith now her battle is over and her victory has been won.

Larry,
Life is hard, I just saw you at the funeral of Carlissa and you were telling me about your mother. I was truly shocked to hear about her passing. May God keep you during this time of bereavement for your mother. Know that God only takes the prepared and your mother was prepared. Know that God listens for the humble cry and your mother was humble. I will be praying for you .
