Dot always had the coffee on and was interested in what you had to say. I still remember her 'spot' on the beach and her friendly smile. Her warm smile and love of her family will always be remembered. My thoughts are with you Gary and the rest of your family, I saw the memorial bench at Grand and memories flooded back. Dot was truly a Grand Beach icon!!! - Posted by: Valerie Holder (friend) on: Aug 12, 2015

My mom and Dot spent the summer watching us kids on the beach and of course the many many hours at the community club organizing the many events througout the summer. Your mom will be sadly missed, take care and remember the good times you all had together. - Posted by: Close Family (Friends) on: Jan 27, 2015
