Our family will miss Dorthy greatly. We weren't able to spend as much time with her as we would have liked, since we live in Ohio, yet she was always present in our thoughts.

Mama Batts, you will truly be missed. Remebering when I first met you. Your smile, kindness and most of all your humor. How hard you had me laughing. Thank you for opening your heart & your arms to me. Before returning to Texas the hug that was given, as if I was one of your children made me humble to have been in your presence. You will always be a Part of Me!!! Prayers go up and Blessings come down. Love & Honor

Our deepest condolences and sympathy go out to the Batts family. You are continually in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Julius and Christie Easterling
