Life Reflections

Ms. Dorothy Ann McCray, daughter of Mary Lee Middleton and the late James McClary Sr. was born on November 11, 1950. At an early age, she became a member of the Kingstree Church of Christ, where she was baptized, and remained a faithful and dedicated member.

Dorothy affectionately called "Dot" was educated in the public schools of Williamsburg County. She was a 1969 graduate of Tomlinson High School. After high school, she attended Friendship Junior College. Dorothy was employed at Oneita Inc. of Lane, SC, and later was employed with Andrews Apparel for over 20 plus years. After the closing of Andrews Apparel, "Dot" wanted to work in the medical  field. She later became a Certified Nursing Assistant. She was employed with Ruth Louis Adult Daycare, until her health declined. "Dot" was very family oriented and loved family gatherings. If there was any family events, she was in attendance.
