I have know Jim and Dot for many years, since the early 2000's. She was a very special person. She never hesitated to help anyone that needed it. She reminded me so much of my mom. Dot was a treasure put on this earth. I know she is happy with Jim now. It was a great pleasure to call her a very special friend. She will be missed greatly.
