Bob and Family: We are so sorry to hear about Dorothy's passing. We remember her as a very kind and loving lady. Although, it has been 22 years since we last saw her, we still remember her beautiful smile, with Christ's Love radiating. This world's loss is Heaven's Gain.
We are asking the lord to Sustain you at this diffcult time.

To the family of Dorothy Lamb, I would like to express my heartfelt condolences at the loss of such a wonderful loving lady. In my opinion Dorothy could walk into a room and with her quiet demeanor exude so much love, that you were drawn to her. I know that as a brother in Christ I will miss her dearly, yet always remember her smile each and everytime I saw her. Thank you Dorothy for being a part of my life. Gary

We are so sad to hear that the world has lost such a great person. Dorothy was a wonderful person who loved everyone and was always there to lend a hand or ear if you needed some one to talk to. She did Gods work and suported her husband in Gods work as well. She will be missed and me and my family will smile when we remember her. I thank God for the time she was in my life. I a leave my condolances to her Husband and family.
With love,
Melissa, Scott, and Joshua Kimble
