The following are the words to Dotti’s favorite song: You shall cross the barren desert, But you shall not die of thirst, You shall wander far in safety, Though you do not know the way, You shall speak your words to foreign men, And they will understand, You shall see the face of God and live, Be not afraid, I go before you always, Come, follow me and I will give you rest, If you pass through raging waters in the sea, You shall not drown, If you walk amid the burning flames, You shall not be harmed, If you stand before the power of hell, And death is at your side, Know that I am with you through it all, Be not afraid, I go before you always, Come, follow me and I will give you rest, And blessed are your poor, For the kingdom shall be theirs, Blest are you that weep and mourn, For one day you shall laugh, And if wicked men insult and hate you, All because of me, Blessed, blessed are you, Be not afraid, I go before you always, Come, follow me and I will give you rest She is survived by her children, Patrick (Dawn) Williams of Connecticut, Michelle Bailey of Virginia, and Dena (Brenda) Creaser of Colorado, grandchildren, David (Ashley) Arpin, Seth (Stephanie) Williams, Andrew Creaser, and Alyssa Walters, great grandchildren, Kendra, Madalyn, Brayden, and Ayvalee, a sister, Kathleen Santino of Massachusetts, and several cousins, and relatives living on the East Coast.
