Aunt Dot was such a fine lady. She will be missed. She always made me feel welcomed whenever we visited in spite of all the boys, she always made sure I was involved in something.
I love you Aunt Dot! You are now with all of your brothers and sisters in heaven.
Such fond memories of going to first major league baseball game and getting a “Redbirds” batting helmet. Hanging out with the boys, miss you guys. Taking my first airplane trip by myself, I think I was 10 years old, to see you guys and spend a couple of weeks with Aunt Dot and Brian. She was so gracious to me and our family. I know she will be missed. Praying for you all. God bless, Phillip.
Aunt Dot, I love you.
You were the last of the Riley siblings and a member of the Greatest Generation.
My prayers are with your boys and their families; God Bless to all.
All my love.
I have been so blessed to have had my beautiful Aunt Dot. Wallace and I have so many memories growing up of time spent with her, with Uncle Cliff, and their 4 boys, my cousins. I have vivid memories of being with them when Tim was born in Biloxi, in Memphis when Greg was born, in Cincinnati when Keith and Brian were small, and of course in Saint Louis. But I was especially blessed to have her close enough in my adult years to spend precious time with her in NC. She was such a comfort to Karisa and me me in rough times. Although I haven’t seen her in recent years, she has never ceased being in my heart and mind. She and her brothers and sisters were all so close throughout their lives, which was great for us kids because we got to see each other often, or at least more often than most cousins. And for that I’m grateful, because although we’re all far apart, we’re still family… something that Aunt Dot treasured. My prayers are with you all as you mourn her loss but rejoice in her healing.
