What a blessing for Dorothy to be in the presence of her Father, with a new body and an opportunity to sing his praises. I have wonderful memories of Dorothy. I always thought of her as wise. She was gentle, always slow, deliberate and thoughtful in what she did. I learned from her faith and spirituality. Her quiet, thoughtful presence, her music, and her joy impacted her students, her friends and her colleagues in Fiji. My sympathies are with all her mourn her loss as I do.
