To Dotties Family:

We called ourselves Lucy and Ethel because of all the crazy situations we got ourselves in. We laughed together, cried together, worried together and plotted together. I find some comfort in the fact that this last year or so she found so much of the happiness that she deserved. I will miss her very much. She loved you all so much, she always talked so proudly of all of you. Please call me if there is anything I can do to help you in your time of sorrow.

Dear family of Dottie,

I am so sorry for your loss. I was shocked to hear the news from Eileen. Dottie meant the world to me and I will miss very much trying to touch base with her. I did get to see her almost every time I went to Chicago. I am planning a trip this summer and I would have made plans to see her then. I will be seeing Eileen.

I'm really sorry I couldn't have gotten there to see all of you grown up. At least I enjoyed the pleasure of seeing you as young children and hearing all the news about you over the years.God bless you. I will be praying for all of you as you go through this difficult time.

Love, Alyce Kurecki

To Dotties family and friends:



We are very sad to hear about Dottie's passing. Although we had not seen her in many years, we thought of her often and have many fun memories of her from when we lived in Midlothian. We will always remember her thoughtfulness when our children were born. We know what a hard worker she was and what a great example she must have been to her children and grandchildren. May her sweet smile shine on all of you.

To Debbie and family, Donald and family and Kyle and family, Larry and Dororthy. My heartfelt condolences to all of you. She was and has been my best friend for over 40 years. Even tho our paths have taken many bends and turns in the road., we could pick up like it had just been yesterday. That is the name of friendship. Dottie when we last spoke we were getting together soon. But now you are sleeping peacefully. And I know you had no time to say goodbye. But in our hearts you live on. To a most beautiful person. I will miss you terribly. God Bless, Eileen
