Miss Dot was a super sweet lady. While I have not seen her in years, it is her warm smile that envision as I remember her. No doubt she touched countless lives of young people just when they needed it during her years of transporting them to and from school. The world is a better place for her having passed through it. Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for sharing Miss Dot with us! She was and will continue to be a blessing to so many that she touched! Amen.

I am so glad I knew Ms. Dot. I feel blessed to have been raised in Bethel Church by such wonderful and caring people such as Ms. Dot. She was truly one of the finest women that the good Lord ever sent to this earth. My sympathy and thoughts are with Zonia and Joannae at this time.

Joannae and Larry, wanted to say I am sorry to hear about your mother/mother -in-law. She was always a good bus driver, known as Ms. Dot to me. Very kind and friendly. I saw her a few years ago at Flowers Hospital and she was the same sweet person that I remembered. Sending my best to you and your whole family. Amelia Pryor
