To the Family…
Dottie and I go back many years, even before the Kidney Center was opened on McDowell Street. For many years, she purchased medical supplies from my company there in Asheville and during all that time, I never heard her raise her voice. Dottie exuded confidence, honesty and friendship.
Gaston, Lisa, Mark and families, I am so sorry for your loss. I will always remember Dottie’s brilliant eyes, warm smile and loving heart. I know you are proud and thankful at what a wonderful spouse, mother, grandmother and human she was. I am thankful for having known her and the opportunity to work with your family. Sincerely, Dr. Don Acton
Andrea and family. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Brenda Shuford

Dear Dalton/Shoffner Family,
You are all in my thoughts and prayers as I learn this sad news. Dot touched my life in so many ways, and she will always hold a special place in my heart.
