Dot accepted Christ at an early age and was educated at Thomas Calhoun Walker Training School, Gloucester VA. Dorothy was a loving daughter, sister, mother, grandmother. She made sure all were taken care of and was a provider. She was a friend and touched the lives of so many people in so many ways. Dorothy was a strong, independent woman who worked from an early age. She was an entrepreneur, who operated in what she knew, she was organized, with an amazing awareness of business, and how to use her skills, business savvy, and God given talents, taking on financial ventures to take care of family and herself. Dorothy was known for her cooking skills, which were above and beyond that of some the best restaurants around. She was asked to cook and cater for large corporations as well as friends and family.
