I will truly miss Dorothy. Although it's difficult to see beyond the sorrow, may looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow. I remember when I first came to work for ETMC, Dorothy trained me and introduced me to all the right people. I will never forget her kindness.

There are many ways to describe Dorothy but there's one that immediately comes to me... she loved to talk about God... When she spoke of His goodness you couldn't do anything but rejoice with her. Dorothy will be missed but we know where she is and what we must do to see her again. Praying for the Smith/Mayfield families and all who Loves Dorothy. Carol Webb

I knew Dorothy from working at UT Health East Texas and know the Smith family from when my late father did revivals at Bellwood and Dale's Chapel. She was always friendly and had a smile. Sending prayers and love to the Smith/Mayfield family. From Jean McGee (Rev. L.M. McGee's daughter)

Well, I'm still in disbelief PollyPop that's the name I gave you. You were not only my Sister, you were my prayer partner, my casino buddy, my travel buddy, my shoulder to cry on, my dinner buddy and my just because buddy and last bit definitely not least my decision maker when it came down to my medical needs. You never said, "No" when asked if you could do this or if you wanna do that you always replied, "When we going". I received the called that night and honestly I can say, I haven't been the same since. I have cried and laughed about things you would say and do that have kept me moving forward each day, and it's been hard but, I want to say what I would tell you everyday before we hung up from talking on the phone. I love you and there's nothing you can do but love me back. This won't be easy by any means but each day I will remember the good things we did together and the road trips we traveled constantly. Save a seat for me on the other side and continue to look down from heaven and just say Sis, "I'm Good". Forever in my heart and Sisters4Life💔😭🥲🕊Koolaid....Dee Love-Crawford

Mrs. Dorothy would faithfully check in on us at UT Home Health. We'd laugh about being that much closer to Friday. The news of her passing was sad and unbelievable. My thoughts are with her loved ones during this difficult time.

This has got to be one of the hardest times in my life. How do I bid farewell to my sister who has been my A1 since Day1. We were not twins but we were two peas in the pot. We did everything together as a family. If you seen one of us, you can be sure the others are close around. Our mother taught all 11 of us to Love each other, Love others and stay together as a family. We did/do just that. My heart is heavy and broken. I'm not crying because I don't know where she is because to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. I'm crying because I WILL MISS MY SISTER, LORD JESUS I WILL MISS MY SISTER!!! SATURDAY WILL NOT BE A GOOD DAY FOR US, IT'S JUST HARD TO SAY SO LONG AND EVEN HARDER TO SAY GOODBYE SO PLEASE KEEP US LIFTED IN PRAYER..... WE LOVE YOU "SNOWY", UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN.
