Please accept my sincere condolences. Our Heavenly Father assures us that one day we will never have to mourn the death of a loved one again because He is going to put an end to death. (Revelation 21:4) In the meantime, I can only hope that you can be comforted from Jesus’ promise of the resurrection at John 5:25 where we will be reunited with our dear loved ones, never having to say good-bye again. Again, please accept my sincere condolences.
We are so sorry for the loss of your Mom. Mike and I will always treasure our memories of Mrs. Latham in our hearts. She blessed so many people with her faith and kindness. Your mom was a happy, caring, loving and amazing lady! She definitely enjoyed her Nats baseball and her Redskins football along with a glass of wine. We shared a lot of good laughs at Mark & Kathy’s gatherings over the years. Mrs. Latham will be truly missed by us! Keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless You All! Love, Cindy Hodges & Mike Farrell
Dorothy was always a delight and very gracious and we have missed her since she retired. We are sorry for you but we are happy that she will not have to suffer anymore and will be in a wonderful place.
Wiley and Teresa.

Dot was a great friend to my mother Joyce Hessler. They loved their visits together and made new memories while laughing at old memories. Deepest condolences to the family.
