“In loving memory of Dorothy Lee Karr My Aunt Dot was one of the best people I have ever known. I used to tell her she was seated right next to God himself. She is the reason I started going to water aerobics which has changed my life, I owe so much more than she ever knew. I know she is watching my family from Heaven and keeping us safe, she will light my way whenever my world gets dark just as she always has. I love you with all my heart Aunt Dot and I miss you so much.”
