In Memoriam: Dorothy “Dotty” Holsten Thompson
Dotty was married to GAWDA industry legend Ken Thompson and together they were fortunate to spend many years building friendships through times spent traveling on various business trips. Ken’s career often required relocating their family, so Dotty packed up and moved her family over a dozen times. Each time they moved she created a beautiful, inviting home with lovely interiors and gardens to make each home more special than the last.
Affectionately known as Dotty, Mom, or Dee, she cherished being a wife, a mother of four, a grandmother of eight and a great-grandmother of five. She spent countless hours watching and cheering on her children and grandchildren as they participated in sports, cheered on a team or performed at various recitals. Her happiest moments in life were raising her family and being surrounded by her husband, her children, their spouses and her grandchildren wherever and whenever possible. Dotty and Ken shared over 66 years of marriage.
Dotty will be missed by all who knew her. To read a full obituary, click here.

Haun Welding Hosts 3rd Annual Charity Golf Tournament
Haun Welding Supply hosted its 3rd Annual Charity Golf Tournament.
“Our goal this year, aside from surpassing last year’s donation (just shy of $18,000), was to raise $20,000. With the help of our vendors, customers, employees and friends, we were able to raise over $26,000 for David’s Refuge! Thank you to everyone who came out to support this event and to those of you who couldn’t make the trip but supported us in other ways. We are blown away by your generosity year after year and we couldn’t do this without your help.”
