ITS JUST BEEN A LITTLE WHILE THAT YOU LEFT US BUT I AM MISSING YOU ALREADY.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE DAYS AND MONTHS TO COME WILL BRING BUT I DO KNOW IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME WITHOUT YOU. YOU BROUGHT US COMFORT, JOY, LAUGHTER, PRIDE, ETC. BUT MOST OF ALL YOU PROVIDED A STRONG SENSE OF FAMILY. I PERSONALLY WILL ALWAYS CHERISH THE FAMILY GATHERINGS THAT WE SHARED WERE I HAVE MANY FOND MEMORIES THAT I HAVE STASHED AWAY TO HELP ME THROUGH THE MORE DIFFICULT DAYS AHEAD. I LOVE YOU MOM DOT AND I ONLY WISH I WOULD HAVE SAID IT MORE. THERE IS A HUGE STRONG CHAIN WITH A VERY SPECIAL LINK MISSING AND I INTEND TO HELP MEND THAT CHAIN BY TRYING TO BE A BETTER PERSON EACH DAY OF MY LIFE. THIS IS HOW I WISH TO SHOW MY LOVE AND RESPECT FOR YOU.

MISSING YOU ALREADY,
YOUR SON-IN-LAW LEAHMOND

I will be praying for you! love always

My heartfelt condolences to the family. We look forward to the day when death will be no more ( REVELATION 21:3,4 ) and our tears will be of joy and happiness and not for pain and sorrow. I hope you can find comfort in Gods word at 2 CORINTHIANS 1:3-7 where we find the kind of comfort only God can give.
Cherish your many memories, share them with others and keep them forever in your hearts.
May the loving support of family and friends help you through this difficult time.

Mom Mom I Miss you dearly I especially will miss all our long talks we would have after I had to yell Mom Mom its me "Snoopy" through the answer machine a thousand times before you would pick up "). It's going to be hard but I know how you wouldn't want me to make a fuss over you, I will cherish all the fond memories I have of you. As tears roll down my face I know your in a much better place I'll be selfish to want you here forever, As this I no is impossible so Mom Mom Dot as you make your journey go in peace, you've earned your sleep, Your love in my heart I'll eternally keep

I Love you Mom Mom Dot, Your Grandaughter Shamona "Snoopy" Amway-Baylor

I worked with Dot for the last 5 years and she was always talking about one of her kids or her adored grandchildren. Her family was her priority and she lit up when speaking of them. I can only imagine how much she will be missed. She touched my life and I am glad I met her. I hope these words lighten your hearts at this sad time.

Sincerely,
Beth Brock

Mom I miss you so much I can't even begin to think about how I'm going to get through this. I know what you would tell me, "just do it". I promise to remember all the stories of our family to pass down to the kids, your memories of our childhood and yours would have me siting like a little kid waiting for another and another. and the kids love to hear about how mom mom Dot would yell at Uncle Jr. for changing the tv to the 3 stooges when me & Yvette would be watching something else, they got a kick out of that. Jake said can you look for Kayla? And RJ said you forgot your flowers we got for you. Dinah Rose carries her hankies around and simply loves mom mom Dot's hankies. Mom I promise to be strong for them like you would always tell me "just take care of those kids". Shell, Bunk,Jr & Yvette and I will take care of Daddy, you did a lot and kept everyone in order now for you I say rest and I love you mommy!

To Her Family;

Dot & I go back to 9th grade. She was always a nice person & friend. She was the same person all her life. God Bless;

Judy

Our condolences and prayer are with you and the rest of the family. Eventhough our heart may be heavy, because she is not physically in our presence. You can always smile or laugh when you think of her.
GOD loaned her to this world to make someone smile or laugh, that was her mission. A mission that she completed for sure.
GOD will still bless you even in this time of sorrow.She will still make you smile or laugh. REMEMBER WHEN MOM MOM DOT said, did or gave you ?_____________________________ ( fill in the blank) I bet you are smiling or laughing as you fill in the blank. You see here mission still continues on. GOD BLESS YOU ALL THE GOODMAN'S

You will always be inside me. You have always been there for all of us. You are a great mother and grandmom. And I wanna thank you for that. I love you!!! I will always carry you in my heart.
Your great~granddaughter Jornae Michele Grove

DOT I CANNOT SAY GOODBYE, BUT I WILL SAY SEE YOU LATER. YOU AND I HAVE A SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP. YOU ALWAYS SAID THAT I WAS YOUR BEST SON-IN-LAW AND I TOLD YOU THAT YOU WAS MY BEST MOTHER-IN-LAW. DOT WITH A SMILE YOU WOULD SAY 'I AM YOUR ONLY MOTHER-IN-LAW'. WE HAD A SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP. YOU BREAK IT-I FIX IT, YOU WANT IT-I GET IT. AND WHENEVER I FAILED YOU, MY BEST SON-IN-LAW TITLE WAS TAKEN AWAY. YOU GAVE ME GIFTS THAT MADE ME SMILE AND LAUGH. I REMEMBER WHEN YOU TOLD ME I HAVE THREE FAMILIES TO TAKE CARE OF (YOU AND GENE FIRST,YVETTE AND HER KIDS SECOND, AND YOUR SHELLY AND MY KIDS WHEN I GET SOME FREE TIME) AND WE LAUGHT UNTIL TEARS CAME. DOT YOU ALWAY SAID THAT IF ANYTHING HAPPEN GENE, YOU WAS GOING TO MOVE IN WITH SHELL AND I. YOU DID RIGHT INTO MY HEART. WITH THAT I SAY 'SEE YOU LATER' AND GOD BE WITH YOU

My heart felt condolence goes out to the whole family. I have been friends with Dottie the day she started at Duling-Kurtz. Wish this could have continued longer, but it is in Gods hands, not ours. She was a very pleasant lady with a warm smile. Fridays are not quite he same now. Miss you. Love, Pat

Mom Mom Dot, It has been truly a pleasure to know you. It hasn't hit me that you are gone but maybe that's because I still feel your spirit. You love with all of your heart and I thank you for showing that to DuQue' and I everytime. I remember all the conversations we use to have when we waited for the train to take me back to Harrisburg. I really appreciated those talks because it brought us closer. I know I will see you again, and when I do lets laugh and talk like old times. I love you and you will always live in my heart. Always, Matava~

Sis. Michelle & Family, our prayers are with you and hope you are sustain by great family and friends during this time. How I met your mother, hmmm that seems like a tv show:o). I met your mother at one of your Queen Esther Tea at your church. From that first meeting, I felt a "sweet, sweet spirit" and a smile of sunshine. So just from that, without me knowing her, her family and friends were truly blessed to have her in your lives. There is peace and calm in the 23rd Psalm. God will give you that peace that surpasseth all understanding in time. Be Blessed, Love you and God Bless. Sandra K. Jackson, Harrisburg

MOM...AT TIMES IT FEELS AS IF I'M IN A DREAM, BUT IN REALITY, YOU ARE GONE FROM US, WITH NO TIME TO PREPARE, JUST MEMORIES AND STORIES TO HOLD ONTO. I'LL ESPECIALLY REMEMBER CALLING HOME, AND IF DADDY ANSWERED THE PHONE, SOMETIMES I WOULD HEAR YOU IN THE BACK GROUND SAYING "GOOD MOVIE ON BUNK" AND I KNEW THAT WAS MY CLUE TO TALK TO YOU ANOTHER TIME, OH HOW I WILL MISS THAT.(SMILE) AS I WATCH THE LIFETIME MOVIE NETWORK CHANNEL, I WILL CHERISH THAT WAS A STATION YOU ENJOYED, AS WE DID SHARE THAT IN COMMAND, A GOOD MOVIE, AND I WILL ESPECIALLY MISS YOU TELLING ME "BUNK, I HAVE TRASH BAGS FOR YOU, AND WATER" AS YOU KNEW IT DIDN'T TAKE MUCH TO MAKE ME HAPPY. (SMILE/TEARS) MOM, YOU WERE LOANED TO US FOR THE AMOUNT OF TIME THAT THE GOOD LORD SAW FIT, AND NOW WE MUST LET YOU REST, I KNOW THAT YOUR LOVE ONES EMBRACED YOU WHEN YOU WERE CALLED UPON TO GO AS GOD CHILD TO BE WITH HIM. YOU WILL FOREVER REMAIN IN MY HEART NEAR AND DEAR. AND AS YOU WROTE TO ME IN MY LETTER ONE YEAR AND A MONTH AGO. "JEAN DOLORES NUMBER 2 DAUGHTER A.K.A. BUNKY" (BIRTH ORDER) SMILE UPON US ALL MOM, AND WRAP YOUR WINGS AROUND US TO COMFORT OUR HEARTS. I LOVE AND WILL MISS YOU MOM.

When God calls us, it is a thing of beauty.. for we believe and the bible tells us there is a better place we are going. Heaven is getting a new tenant and she is loving every minute in the fathers' house.. so be strong, be joyful and always love one another. may god keep blessing you and your family.. love glory fogle

Michelle and James
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. May your memories give you strength, and allow the love of those around you to help you through the days ahead.
Love Janie

To my extended family. My prayers and love goes out to each and everyone of you. I was sad to hear of Miss Dot's passing. She was a very special lady and I am blessed for having known her. I always enjoyed being at some of the family gatherings. I am still part of the family. I will miss seeing her smiling face. She always had a smile everytime i saw her. But always remember she instilled goodness in each and every one of you. She knows that you all will keep each other together. Love to you all.

Mom, I realize that I've taken it for granted that you will be here for days, years to come....my birthday last year you presented to me a letter acknowledging things that i needed to hear, I just simply said, thanks mom... Not giving you the benefit of knowing how that made and makes me feel, more importantly, not giving it any thought that you may have needed the same in return.... I apologize for my neglect. I'm guilty of not allowing the closeness that you shared with my siblings, I'm happy for them that they had that with you. I believe you loved us each in our own unique way, no matter how close or not, we did have our bond, a mother and daughter bond, and that is special. At the end of our phone conversations, either I or you would say, "I love you" and I felt it was genuine. And I find comfort in that. From my earliest memory to my very latest, good with the bad, old with the new, I will cherish and hold dear for that part of me is a make up of whom I am today, Mom, I could of kept this private, but this is something I felt compeled to share here today, as you wanted me to read my letter in front of our love ones just over a year ago, so I hope it's okay. And yes mom, in answer to your question, you made it up over the years, No celebration with the family gatherings will ever be the same, for you added a unique flare. I love and miss you mom, your daughter, Bunky

DEAR FAMILY, DUE TO UNFORTUNATE CIRCUMSTANCES I AM UNABLE TO BE GATHERED WITH EVERYONE TO CELEBRATE THE LIFE OF MY BELOVED GRANDMOTHER, HOWEVER, I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE A MEMORY I HAVE FROM WHEN I WAS A CHILD AND EVERY YEAR AROUND CHRISTMAS MY FAMILY WOULD GO TO COATESVILLE TO HAVE DINNER, ENJOY EACH OTHERS COMPANY AND EXCHANGE GIFTS, THAT WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE TIMES OF THE YEAR WHEN I WAS YOUNGER..AS THE YEARS PASSED AND I GREW OLDER, I BEGAN TO INDULGE IN A LIFESTYLE THAT DROVE A WEDGE INTO THE RELATIONSHIP OF ME AND MY FAMILY, AFTER SPENDING THE MAJORITY OF MY ADULT LIFE INCARCERATED IN ONE INSTITUTION OR ANOTHER, I PRETTY MUCH LOST CONTACT WITH ALL OF MY FAMILY EXCEPT FOR MY PARENTS. HAVING BEEN HARDENED BY THE LIFESTYLE I'VE CHOOSE, I NEVER PUT TO MUCH THOUGHT INTO THE IMPORTANCE OF A CLOSE FAMILY. ALL THAT CHANGED WHEN I RECEIVED THE NEWS THAT I LOST MY GRANDMOTHER, ALL I COULD THINK OF WAS HOW I ROBBED HER OF A RELATIONSHIP WITH ME, KNOWING THAT SHE IS NOW IN A PLACE WHERE SHE CAN LOOK DOWN OVER ME AND SEE MY HEART, I KNOW SHE HAS FORGIVEN ME FOR MY IGNORANCE. THERE IS A LESSON TO BE LEARNED FROM EVERY SITUATION LIFE HAS TO OFFER, AND THE LESSON THAT MOM-MOM DOT HAS JUST TAUGHT ME, UNBEKNOWNST TO HER, IS THAT I CAN'T TAKE FAMILY FOR GRANTED, WE HAVE TO LIVE LIFE TO OUR FULLEST POTENTIAL ALL THE WHILE CHERISHING EACH AND EVERY MOMENT WE GET TO SHARE WITH ONE ANOTHER. WITH ALL THAT SAID, I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU MOM-MOM DOT, FOR TEACHING ME A LEASON I SHOULD HAVE LEARNED YEARS AGO. WRITTEN WITH LOVE, ADMIRATION AND RESPECT, I LOVE YOU MOM-MOM DOT, YOUR GRANDSON, JULIAN TYRE

It's been 7 years the last time I saw, touched and spoke to you in your physical form...now I talk to you in our Spiritual form and Mom and I miss you more than ever.

You are forever embedded in my heart and mind.  I miss you like the air that I breathe.  I know you were with me when I got married and mom you would just love Dave.  Please continue to walk beside me in spirit as I feel your presence and I still need your guidance.  Tell dad I'm sending unlimited kisses and I miss him just as much as I miss you.  Take care of each other as both of you have taken care of me.  Please shine that heavenly light on me forever!

Love you mom --- never ending kisses to you!!!  

I worked with Dottie for many years, and each day I spent with her was just wonderful. What a sweet spirit. The world is at a great loss having lost her. I moved from the area ,but I think of her fondly and often. Her family was blessed Daily with her presence.
