This evening I received an email from Dotty Powers account drafted by her daughter explaining that she passed away this morning.
The content of the email with telephone numbers edited out to allow the family privacy, follows. I felt it appropriate to share with our group here.
"Dear Friends of Dorothy,
This is her daughter, Alicia Hart. I am apologizing for not calling each one of you individually. There are so many people that need to be told. My mother has so many family and friends that I hope you understand this was not my wish to type something impersonal to you.
My mother would have wanted you all to know that she has had trouble with her heart these last few weeks and unfortunately she suffered a major heart attack on Tuesday, Sept 27th. She died today on the 28th at about 7 in the morning. She passed peacefully and the hospital staff took excellent care of her. I know that there are some of you that I personally do not know, but as your name was in my mother's address book, I felt that she would want you to know and considered you a friend.
I know that there are some of you that have been talking to her about the future and about Jehovah God. I would really like to either continue your conversations or introduce you to someone you would like to talk with. The times that we are living in are difficult and full of strife, but as my mother knew, there is a hope for all of us in God's righteous kingdom in a beautiful paradise.
The Memorial Service will be on Saturday, October 1, 2005, at 2 PM.
It will be held at:
Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses
266 Fairbanks Rd.
Farmington, ME
If you would like to contact us, please reply to this address, or you can call at my father's home, Alan Powers xxx-xxx-xxxx, or you can reach me (Alicia) at my home xxx-xxx-xxxx
Thank You
The Family of Dorothy Powers"
