Dot is my child hood friend. After we were out of high school we were room mates in Lubbock, Texas until we were married. We had many good times together and I will miss her. God bless your boys and their families and her sister Joann and family. I will always cherish our good times and will see you again someday. Love you Pauline Long and Dwain Collins
