Joanie and I want to express our heartfelt condolences to David, Roger and all of the family members for their loss of the family matriarch Dot. While we have stayed somewhat on the periphery of the wedding biz’ we know Dot was a mainstay at various functions, always helpful to David with his passion–all things wedding related. We hold Dot close to our hearts in thought and prayer and know she is spiritually at peace in a place reserved for those who lead a life of love and warmth.

It was the late 80s when I went to work for DJ Tunes of FL and it
didn’t take long for my friendship with Dot to blossom. I’d see her at Bridal Shows & at the DJT office. She’d always smile, say hello and off we’d go talking & laughing.. Dot was my buddy & I’ll miss her greatly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My thoughts & love are with David & his siblings.

It had been a long time since I had the pleasure of being in the company of Dot. When I worked in the office of DJ Tunes of Florida in the 80’s and 90’s, Dot always kept me laughing and was such a help when I needed it. My love and comfort goes to all of the family during this time of sorrow. Dot will be missed by us all.

Dot. What a sweet person. She was my second “mom” and treated me like family. For the past 18 or so years, she was always with David & Roger when we went out to dinner, or at a bridal show. Always ready to chat and make jokes. Dot, you were there when my mom passed and I thank you for that. Thank you for being a friend and part of the family. I will miss you greatly, thinking about you now, and you will always have a place in my heart.

Your Mom will be missed by many people. I remember meeting her about 9 years ago when I first opened my store and was doing bridal shows with David for PWG. She was so sweet and so nice and she always had a nice smile no matter what. God needed another sweet angel in heaven to help watch over all of his children.

I first met Dot while working for David and Roger at Perfect Wedding Guide. She would come over to the office to help David with bridal leads, and get promotional materials ready for the mail. Many times she would have to sit and wait for David to get out of the “library” as we called it, so she and I would talk and get to know one another better. I will always remember how caring and patient she was. On several occasions, Dot would come to the office ready to work, only to find out that David had forgotten to call her to tell her not to come that day. She never once complained. She took everything in stride. I would sometimes berate David for making his poor mother drive from Merritt Island for nothing. She and I would have a good laugh. As we started working bridal shows together, our friendship grew. I would talk to her about my own mother’s declining health, and Dot would always listen intently, and at times offer some advice. When my mother passed away in 2009, Dot came to see me with a sympathy card and offered her condolences. With tears welled up in my eyes I told Dot I didn’t know what I would do without my mom. She then replied “I can be your mom.” I will never forget those words. From that point on, I referred to Dot as “mom.” So mom, thank you for the laughs, your caring support, the fun times on the cruises and lunch at Olive Garden. I will miss you dearly. Look up my mother and father when you walk through those pearly gates. They will show you a good time for sure. I’ll help Roger watch over David, cause Lord knows he needs it! Lol Rest in peace. You will be forever in my heart.

There was a girl in Philadelphia who was a Depression baby, born in 1929, just 6 months before the financial crash. Her and her family persevered and they attended church and school in St. Veronica’s Parrish. Later this woman would attend Little Flower High School. She later married a man who worked as a dockworker on Delaware Avenue. He however, had plans to one day run his own business. He did that and started up a flower shop in the Allegheny subway station on the Broad St. Line. Later, he had a small kiosk in the 8th and Market station. Not only did his wife help him, but they had and raised 3 boys and 3 girls. She went on to be a Kelly Girl, working in administrative jobs for various lines of work. Her husband died in 1968 and she remarried in 1969 until that husband died in 2000. Widowed for 16 years, she lived near her oldest son and daughter in central Florida, had many friends and enjoyed seeing not only her grandkids, but her great grandkids as well. One thing she always talked about was being at the very first WAWA that opened in Orlando, FL in 2012 and shaking hands with the governor, even though she didn’t like him! She was a Philly girl through and through. This woman had a full and wonderful life when she became ill a little over two weeks ago. I am that oldest son and that woman was my mother, my MOM. She passed away this morning in the hospital, surrounded by me, two of her 3 daughters and her wonderful son in law, who shared a mutual admiration for each other. She was under hospice care and by an amazing act of either coincidence or a higher power, the hospice nurse and the hospice doctor just happened to be standing there with us when she passed. We were told that hearing and touch were the last two senses to go and we fully believe she heard us discussing her situation and the chances of any recovery. Up til then, we had always stepped out into the hall to discuss sensitive information. We knew her time was very limited. Literally, within a few seconds of the doctor using his stethoscope on her and telling us there was no hope, my MOM took her final breath and departed this world for her journey to the next. I am so mentally drained and heartbroken. I enjoyed her for almost 65 years and she was a huge part of my life. I know she’ll be an angel watching over me. Goodnight Mom. My love for you will never die.
