They Live OnThey Live On

   Those we love remain with us
   For love itself lives on;

   Cherished memories never fade
   Because one loved is gone.

   Those we love can never be
   More than a thought apart;

   For as long as there’s a memory,
   They live on within our heart.

TRIBUTES

Dottie was a wonderful Christian woman, admired her so much.
- Billie Klepzig

So sorry to hear the passing of Dottie. I can remember her letting me help wipe the glass in the store when Vernon's and my dad's stores were in the old emporium. She was patient and so sweet to me. I remember I sprayed the counter so many times and she would say, "I think that is enough honey." Hugs, love and prayers for you all, may all the memories comfort you. Love,
- Brittney Melton

We've known and loved the Erb family for over 40 years. I can still hear her and Vern singing together. Dottie is in the arms of her Savior and King now, along with her best friend George. Our hearts and prayers are with you.
