She was preceded in death by her sisters Bessie Nell Everett and Peggy Lou Steele. CC was unwaveringly dedicated to her family. Nothing made her happier than her grandchildren, whom she orchestrated her entire life around, they were her pride and joy. She was an avid gardener and loved dancing, music, boating and traveling to her favorite island, South Bimini, Bahamas. She was a member of the Holy Trinity by the Lake Episcopal Church and worked as a Product Manager at Travelers Insurance in a career that spanned over 30 years. Her enduring spirit made lasting impressions on everyone she met and if you were a friend, you were family.

    My deepest and most heartfelt sympathy goes out to the family of CC. I’ve worked with her for many years on a regular basis, and she was my absolute favorite underwriter…always so smart and helpful. I enjoyed getting to know her personal side and hearing all about the grandkids and the sailing trips, the destination wedding, etc. She absolutely adored her grandchildren – so proud! She was very fortunate to have such a loving family and a life full of joy. I will miss her terribly! Called home to God too soon. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

    Through the years, CC has been a colleague, an inspiration, and most importantly, a true friend. Her compassion, dedication, and positive attitude always stood out, and while CC will be deeply missed, she will often be remembered. I extend my sincerest condolences to CC’s family and all of those fortunate enough to have known her.

    It was a pleasure working with CC at Travelers she is going to be truly missed.

    Here is a quote that I hope will help you find comfort:

    I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love. Author Leo Buscaglia

    CC was truly one of a kind. I will miss seeing her in the office everyday, her warm spirit and beautiful smile; our lunches and our springtime golf outings. Watching her eyes light up when she talked about “those grandbabies”, as if life began for her when they were born, is something I’ll truly miss. I pray that your memories of CC will bring you great comfort in the days, weeks and months to come. Gone from our presence but never from our hearts. With my deepest sympathy.

    My husband and I were so shocked and saddened when we heard about CC’s passing. I worked with her and Donna almost 39 years ago at American Home Insurance. She was such a sweet person and had a zest for life. Our prayers go up for your family. Frank and Donna Fritz

"If I could give 6 stars I would. Aria made a difficult easier to deal with by basically taking care of everything in an efficient but very empathetic manner. I can speak highly enough of Dusty Martin, who helped us with all of the planning and logistics. He was incredibly understanding and helpful."

"Nothing prepares you for the grief you go through when losing a child. I called this funeral home at 2:00 am broken and could barely talk. The amount of compassion and empathy they showed me immediately let me know I found the right place to cremate my son. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, SINCERE concern, and commitment to making sure my son was honored in the most respectful way. I hope this Funeral home values her as much as my family and I do."

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"
