Dorothy introduced our families to "Carrot Cake" way before Grocery or Restaurants even heard of it and they don't hold a candle to her receipe!!
She always knew what to bring for family gatherings and we looked so forward to it.
Of course the greatest of all, with the birth of Barbara and Barry making my parents, Grandparents, Uncle Gerald and myself, Aunt Karen with adding additional nephews and nieces becoming a bigger part of the Watson family!!
God's precious gift to families.
So proud of both Barbara and Barry in their achievements in life.
Barry with a successful career in the fields of Programming, Control touch Engineer, etc.
His loving wife Michelle and their wonderful family!!
Barbara, Harry and their family went through a difficult time when she passed away, way to soon, was a difficult but after years of health issues she received a pain free body with eternal life in Heaven with Jesus our Lord and Savior.
God blessings to all the families
during this difficult time!!

Every Sunday my wife and I usually are the first to enter Western Sizzlin Steakhouse for lunch after church, and Dorothy would pass by our booth and always speak and always smile. Did not know her personally. Don't attend the same church. Doesn't matter, for she was always kind and friendly. We will miss her! May God comfort the family in this time. I know Dorothy is finally home.
