Mrs. Dot Nicholson, born in Union, MS, was a long-time resident of Florence, MS. With Mrs. Nicholson life was always about family first. For as long as anyone can remember, she was a loving and excellent caregiver for others. She was a cancer survivor; in fact, she won the Susan B. Komen award for Top Ten Survivor’s Stories. Dot had the gift of hospitality. She loved to decorate her home and yard so she could welcome people into her heart and her home. Shopping was a passion of hers, especially shopping for antiques. She retired as office manager of Dixie Automobile Shop & Equipment where she also served as the company accountant. Upon her passing, Mrs. Nicholson was reunited with her loving husband, Richard “Wally” Nicholson, and her parents, Dale and Dee Jordan.
