    To my Aunt Dots who forever holds a special part of my life and memories and a piece of my heart. She was my idol a real 'lady' who kept dignity and respect high on her list. I absolutely adore her and her style was something I remember as far back as a little girl. 'She was a movie star' in my eyes and all who had the pleasure of knowing her. She and Scott were a beautiful family. And she did a wonderful job of making him a great man. I couldn't ask for a more thoughtful loving cousin. All my love to them.

    It was the mid 1960's and I was working in Pittsburgh. At lunchtime my coworkers and I would stand on the corner of Fifth and Smithfield and watch the girls walk by.on one of those days Dots walked up to me to say hello. She was treated with a chorus of wow and who is that ? I remember how proud I was to tell everyone it was my cousin. As I remember she walked away to a round of applause. Forever beautiful Love you
