Lee and family, it was such a privilege to know you first, and then get to know Dotty, after the Lord so beautifully brought you together! You are amazing people! My deepest sympathy to you and to all of the family in the earthly loss of Dotty. May God wrap you tightly in HIS never-failing love and give you strength as you walk through this time.
