Doretta was a very dedicated lady! She served the Lord and loved so many people and brought beautiful music with her organ playing for many years at our little country church.

We are so sorry to read of Doretta's passing, she was a great lady and an accomplished organist at Grove Baptist Church. She was always there and available for special events. Our family appreciated her jewelry repair skills. She will be missed.
