The Blue Eyes of an Angel, I will never forget.
Dot was a wonderful woman, it was nice getting to know her. God Bless her family and friends. We have another Angel to look over us. Jeff
I feel so blessed to have known Dootie Booth she was the best lady all the way around. We had a lot of fun and I’m glad we got to do some things before she passed they will always be close to my heart. Rest In Peace my friend Love you forever. Linda
I will always remember Dottie as a good person who cared deeply for animals and for those she loved. May she rest in peace.
I will always remember Dottie clearing the beach so Ed could beach his boat.
Kim and Ed and Family,
You just don’t know what a blessing it was to know Dottie. She continually cared for our neighbor’s dogs without ever getting paid. She even took Charlie’s dogs to get groomed all the time, because Charlie was too ill to do it. Mitzy is at a loss for her dog’s caretaker now, of which I can’t do because of my allergies. Dottie was also the only neighbor who donated to the neighborhood cancer drive in honor of my husband, Troy. At least I know Dottie will be greeted in heaven by Troy!
Kim, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Please let me know if there is anything I can do. I will miss the times chatting and catching up when I would run into her on the boardwalk during my long walks. It was always a welcomed distraction! Dottie will be missed.
Kim, I am so very sorry for your loss. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.
May GOD bless you and your family; you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Mr. Booth, one of my favorite teachers at FC…..I didn’t know your wife, but wanted to let you know I was thinking about you and am so very sorry for your loss.
My deepest feelings of sympathy for you Dr. Cassidy and your family. Eternal Rest to your mother’s soul and Peace be with you all!
My thoughts are with you Ed. What lucky folks you and Dottie are to have found each other over 30 years ago. Soul mates do not drop from trees. Now take care of yourself for all those grand children; and of course the cat.
Judy
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time of sadness Kim. Rest on the promises of God. He will comfort you and give you peace which surpassed all understanding.
