Peggy and Larry, Dolores has been a fixture in my life for a very long time. I may not have visited her or talked to her often but when I did, she immediately recognized my voice. Your mom was one of a kind. She mothered all of us and we all loved her for it. Be thankful you have so many wonderful memories of her, your dad and Glenn. That's what will get you through the hard times that you will have. You know we love all of y'all and will be praying for each and every one of you in the trying days ahead.
Tab & Kenneth

Sure gona miss my Aunt "D". So much of my life's misery she helped me through, just like a second Mom, although when Larry Joe and Glenn got a whopping I did too.(LOL) Every year I got a Birthday call from her as long as I can remember along with the song. Just as many I suppose, I wish I would have visited more often in the later years. Aunt "D" was a heck of a dancer and a wonderful, wonderful person. I look forward to reuniting with Her, Uncle "O" and Glenn in Heaven some day where we will never again be separated. Peg, Larry Joe, I hope you know but I love both of you as if I was another brother of yours.

Larry and Peg, I'm so sorry for the loss of Aunt "D". She was always so special to me as I know she was to so many.With Glenn and I being so close, since childhood, I was able to make millions of memories with Aunt"D" and her precious family.I will miss my phone call to her on October 12th, on her baby's birthday. I 've called every year since the passing of my dear friend , Glenn Franklin Gordon.Aunt "D" was a JEWEL for sure that I know is celebrating in Heaven with Uncle "O" and Glenn. Love You Larry and Peg. Sincerely, Gary Leon Spurlock
