So sad and sorry to hear of Dot's passing...such a wonderful woman, and every year I looked forward to seeing she and her husband at Rhinebeck car show.....not seeing them the last couple of years made me worry......just remember that she brought lots of happiness and joy to those lucky enough to have met her! All my best to you, Arnie, and sending all my love! Arlen Roth

Dot was an absolutely wonderful person, and I will always have fond memories of her and the times spent at the HH Franklin Club treks . She, Arnie and I ran the Franklin trek in 1974 together . I wish Arnie, Susan, David and Max my sincere condolences - Dot made a lot of people happy, and the memory of her will continue to do so.

Hi Walt
Thanks for your kind words--a beautiful tribute! Dot was doing quite well at Evergreen Place for a year and a half--happy and well-loved by the staff. On 10/24 she had a brain hemorrhage and never recovered. Now she is at peace in a better place.
Sorry to miss Hershey this year--it was to be my 49th--but David (Susan's husband) had a serious medical problem just before we were ready to leave. Here's hoping for next year!
Let's keep in touch.

Dear Arnie, Susan, David & Max,
We offer our heartfelt condolences. We will remember Dot as one of "the 3 Musketeers" (as Arnie so aptly put it!) helping in the Masonic kitchen at every meeting. She was a special lady, liked by all.

I worked with Dot each year during the Franklin Trek at Cazenovia College. Of all the conferences we hosted at the College, Trek was my favorite, largely because of Dot's easy going personality. I looked forward to seeing Dot, Arnie, Susan and David each summer. I'm so sad to hear of her passing. I offer my sympathy to her family and all who loved her.
