Dottie and I got to know eachother while working together at a label making company in Grand Rapids, MI. We quickly became friends. Dottie loved to bake cakes for special occasions and she made me a cake for my bridal shower, it was beautiful and meant a lot to me. After she moved to six lakes we kept in contact through letters and cards. We didn't see eachother for multiple years. One day I decided to look her up, and since then I have been visiting her for several years around her birthday.
She was so kind and easy to talk to, we could always pick up right where we left off. She was always asking about my family.
Dottie never complained, she was happy with the simple things in life and didn't need much to be content. She was very grateful for her family giving her a place to live.
I will truly miss those visits with Dottie and Frances. Dottie will always have a special place in my heart, so sorry for your loss. She will never be forgotten.
Love,
Deb Kamp
I'm so sorry for your loss..sending prayers & hugs.
Dotti was a very nice lady. She let the Six Lakes lions club come into her home and deliver our fruit from there. My condolences goes out to her son and the rest of the Brigham family. May she rest in peace now.
