The Celebration of Dot's Life

The Celebration of Life service held Saturday, Jan. 15th, was everything I had hoped it would be and much more! There were about 200 in attendance at First Baptist Church of Black Forest - about 100 of them were Sweet Adelines from the Velvet Hills chorus and surrounding Chapters. One member (Gwen) came all the way from Loveland (2 1/2 hours away)! I know Mom was honored by your presence but most of all your singing. You filled the church with beautiful harmony, and the words to "How We Sang Today" have new meaning for me.

The next morning at church, the Pastor, his wife and Mark Gibson (Worship Pastor) expressed their delight with the service itself, especially the Sweet Adelines. You all helped make the service a heavenly tribute to Mom and a beautiful memory for those of us still on earth.

And I get to listen to it again and again, as the entire service was recorded.

Thank you to all who participated and attended. We (the entire family) was very blessed.

If you were unable to attend, here are images of the program:
