With a heavy heart we extend out deepest sympathy to Cheryl & her family. God Bless. Dottie was a great person, friend & neighbor whom we grew to love. I moved over next to Dottie & Al in late 2003 & we instantly became friends. She was such a caring lovely lady. They welcomed Rick & I into their home on several occasions & we had a good relationship with them. She & Al will be so very missed. RIP dear friend – enjoy being with your love Al now. With much love, Renee & Rick.
I worked with Dot and Al for many years at Townville Elementary. I remember get-togethers swimming in their neighbor’s pool and of Al and my husband hunting together. They were long time friends and they will be missed. Sorry for you loss. Sincerely, Donna Higgins
I remember Mr. and Mrs. Whitlatch from my days at Townville Elementary School—such caring people who left a legacy for future generations. Sending prayers to Cheryl and family. The love they shared lives through you.

Oh my, my heart is broken, Ms. Dottie was such a blessing to our church family at United Faith Fellowship Church of God for many years, it was great seeing her a year ago or so when she came to a service. She was such a loving and caring person, please let us know when a service is scheduled.
Cheryl, I am so sad to hear of Dorothy’s passing – as I was also with your dad’s passing a while back. I have such fond memories of you three as our neighbors on Route 77 and it makes me happy now to reflect upon that time. Please know that you, Dorothy, and Al are in my thoughts and prayers.
