Our condolences, Fran and Doug Yuengling
Herm and Dot are simply two of the warmest, kindest people I've encountered in life! They opened their home to several Midshipmen over the years, providing a brief refuge from the rigors of life at the Academy. As one of the fortunate recipients of their Christian love, they've helped me learn to enjoy life more, but more importantly to become a better person in the process.
Many hours could pass all too quickly with Dotty in wonderful conversation, filled with laughter, wonderful chiding, reflection and fun challenge. Her's was a beautiful mind accompanied with a huge heart.
Despite changes in appearance that would have lead a lesser person to pull away from people, Dotty's dogged determination to hang onto her close relationships, with those she loved, was nothing short of awe inspiring. All this and keeping her great sense of humor, despite the difficulties her body was going through. Her's was a unique form of bravery.
Dotty ran the good race in life and Heaven is that much better for her arrival there. May Christ's love reunites us all one day with this very lovely lady!
