I am an evangelist from Texas, and I met Dorothy on my very first engagement, in 2006, at her church. I called her "Dorothy from Dalhart." She was a fun person to be with. Today my prayer calendar reminded me that June was a difficult month for her, so I did a little research to see if I could contact her. I discovered that she had gone to Heaven. Welcome Home, Dorothy from Dalhart!
Thinking of your family Ronnie. Your mom was a very special woman. I just read the article of her donation to Rosepine. This was so Mrs. Hayes! Such a big heart and I can't wait to pass there next and admire HER tree. God's blessings to you all.
I will miss you my dear sweetLady!
Sandy and Family, so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed seeing your parents when they traveled to the West Chester area and I enjoyed speaking on the phone with your mother many times over the years. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Sandy, Cathy, Ronnie and families--I was sorry to hear of Dorothy's passing. I lived across the street from her until last year when I moved to Missouri. I had many wonderful discussions and visits with her over the years that I lived in DeRidder. God bless all of you.
I am very sorry to hear about your loss. Mr. & Mrs. Hayes were very special people. I spent most of my childhood hanging out at the Hayes's house with Ricky. The Hayes family will always hold a very special place in my heart. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.
My prayers are with you all! Sandy, Cathy, and Ronnie. What wonderful memories I have of your family while in Rosepine! I love you all. May God Bless.
