Dot was born on Sunday, April 10, 1932 in Austell, Georgia and was a resident of Georgia her whole life. Dot attended Atlanta City Schools and has spent her whole life belonging, worshipping, and serving in many local churches around Georgia including Burnt Hickory Baptist. Dot will be forever remembered as a humble servant of King Jesus and her family, a faithful wife, and an example to all of a true disciple of Jesus.
