    So sorry to learn of Dottie’s passing! We had a similar interest in genealogy, but I
    have to say, she ran circles around me. So sorry to miss her service, I will be away.
    Love to all of you. Very sincerely, cousin Ann

    Bev, Jeff and Janet,
    My deepest sympathies go out to you all.
    I want you all to know that your mother brought me the joy of singing. When we moved in across the street from you and then joined the same church, your mother asked if I wanted to join the youth choir. I was in 2nd grade and have been singing ever since. If not for your mother I don’t know if I would have joined a church or school choir. Singing is my outlet in life and brings me peace. May the joy of music help soothe your hearts in this time of sorrow.
