Dorothy (Dottie) Gregory Lassiter, age 69, went to be with her Lord and Savior on June 6, 2019. She left this Earth in peace and comfort under the loving and compassionate care of the Vanderbilt Hospital Palliative Care Staff. Her sons, Chris and Brian Lassiter, were there with her until her last breath, loving and comforting her just as she did for them her entire life.
