Michael was on his best behavior because he wanted the candy. Low-key, I was on my best behavior because I want candy too. 😂. after we finish lunch, sister Hawkins open up a bag of smarties. Pulled out one pack out of the bunch open up that one roll and gave Michael one smarty our of that role. Michael was so happy because He didn’t eat much candy.

I remember when Dorothy would come to my mother's house, each & every Saturday afternoon with other friends - Sis. Mamie Wilson for a Bible study. My mother always looked forward to those studies...they usually lasted over 2 hours, but my mom enjoyed every moment. After she passed in 2007, Sis. Hawkins was still gracious enough to keep in touch with me years later, often by corresponding through the mail...inviting me to the Annual memorial...reminding me of the upcoming District convention...or..just inquiring about my spiritual well-being. I'm gonna go through my video cam collection & find the recording of she, Brother Hawkins & some of the friends were at our house for a cookout.

Those are the things I remember about sister Hawkins. And now some 30 years later that experience and my friend will always be in my heart.

Mary stephens

I remember when I would stand behind Dorothy when out in field service. She was my teacher. I was afraid to knock on the doors. I felt like if she was my teacher she should do it lol. Then one day I was running my mouth and knocked on a door and the person said can I help you. I thought I was going to die, my breath seemed like it left me. I looked back at Dorothy and I never seen her laugh so hard and from that day on I started answering the doors too. I loved her so much she helped me to come in the truth. I will miss her dearly, but I know I will see her smiling face again in the new world.
