Dilly was a very special lady. Always smiling at everyone. I imagine she will be smiling gtreatly when she gathers with all of her loved ones. One day we shall all meet on that beautiful shore.
Loved you Dilly. Missed and will continue to when I’m at home in Kernersville and visiting at your church. Rest in Peace. Thoughts and prayers of sympathy to Larry and your family.
Even though I have not seen her in the last few years I always concider her a good friend. Working with her for many years you learned that she would do everything possible to help you. Knowing that she is no long here on earth I will miss her more. My prayers are with her family. I so wish I can come to the service but sadly I am not able to do so. She was one of those special people who made the world a better place .
