    Dolly, I met you and your loving husband and wonderful boys years ago when my son Cory Fisher played little league with your son TRAVIS. I am so sorry to learn of your passing. And I always remember you and your husband Philip being two of the kindest people I ever ran across. Very kind people! I saw you both from a distance a few months ago in a store somewhere, but I cannot remember where, but you were holding hands, as I always saw you doing, That always touched my heart. People do not hold hands nearly enough!!! Rest In Peace. God surely has another angel! Sincerely, Crystal Fisher

In my eyes you were way to young. God had other plans for you. You will enter eternal life in a better place. I am at a loss. I love you with all my heart. Now I know why you gave me an early birthday present last week. I know you knew. You grew tired and weary. I now have lots of memories of our good times together. Dolly you were were the Best big sister. Until we meet again, I'll alway 's love you . I'll look for your signs ,knowing you are here with me. You were so special to me. My tears are tears of happiness knowing my prayers were answered for you. Now you are in God's care. May you rest peacefully.
