To the Wonderful Staff at Ology:
I am writing in response to the request for nominations for the “Total Mom Rejuvenation Contest” seen in the Current. I am nominating my wife, Laurie R. Laurie is the loving mother of 2 beautiful young children, ages 7 and 4, a very caring wife to me and a generous caregiver to her mother who now lives with us in Westfield.
Due to a very hectic schedule and a vast geographic area I cover for my company, Laurie is forced to deal with every daily dilemma that occurs in running a household and raising a family by herself. In addition to working full-time as a teacher, she also manages to run the kids to the doctor, sporting events and church activities. When I am away she has to have the kids ready, drop them off at daycare by 7:00am, work till 3:00pm, run as many errands as possible, pick the kids up by 4:00pm, dinner at 6:00 followed by homework and bath time.
Laurie’s father passed away in January and her mother moved in with our family in February, adding to her list of responsibilities.
I try to find ways to relieve her stress and provide time for relaxation, but it seems there is always something “else” we have to do. My wife does an excellent job juggling all of her responsibilities and somehow has managed to stay sane over the years.

Dollie is a wonderful person! She gives herself 100% of the time! One Great Lady! Takes care of her family, both young and old! Thank you for giving us a chance to give back to her! Pauline McDaniel
I love Dollie just as my own mommy – Dollie helped to take care of me when I was younger after my parents got divorced and my mom was struggling. I will forever be thankful for Dollie…………..love you
Dollie is so deserving of a makeover she always puts herself last and is so deserving of a makeover.
I think Dollie would be a perfect candidate for this makeover. I have known her for a long time. She is such a great mother/grandmother. Always putting her family before herself. She most def deserves this makeover!!
After reading these comments and Lola’s submission, I think Dollie would look at this and think she would not deserve it. She takes care of her kids, her husband, her family, her friends, her home, her business that she and her husband own, etc. etc. It is what she does, she doesn’t know any other way, so anyone saying she deserves something for all of her love/work – she would just say it is her life.
So on that note – she deserves the world and if a makeover is included in that, good for her.
Dollie is the epitome of the perfect Mom! She is always serving others and never takes the time for herself. Dollie deserves this make-over more than any Mom in Indy!
Dollie is a great lady who is so much fun and deserves a makeover!
I could not think of any other mom (besides my own) who deserves this. I have been a family friend for over 15 years and have watched her give and give to help her children. She never thinks selfishly and is a beautiful person on the inside and derserves to be even more beautiful on the outside. I LOVE YOU DOLLY SETTLE!!!!!
Dollie is someone you love to meet and once you do you hope she becomes a part of your life. Pick Dollie and you to may meet this wonderful Lady! You may be able to do a makeover on the outside but there is no making over Dollie from the Inside! She has that. A Big Heart.
Give this lady a makeover! She truly deserves it! We love her!
Give Dollie a makeover!! She so deserves it. Everyone else has kinda covered the “why’s”, so just do it!
I have never meet Dolly but heard some amazing stories. I know she is a hard worker and an even better mother! Good luck Dollie!
i think dollie [my grandma] deserves this more than any person i know ! she is always there fior her family and friends. she’s the best grandmother that anyone could ever have ! i hope you get it! loveee youu
Dolly is a hard working women who LOVES her family. She deserves to have some pampering!
Mom has ALWAYS put her family and friends first and herself last. She is truly one of the most loving and caring people that I have ever seen. She has stood by me through the good and bad and has never judged me for any decisions I have made. She would help a complete stranger if they needed it. I haven’t met one person in my life with a heart like my mother. I truly am blessed to be her daughter. Love you Mom!!
I think this would be AMAZING for my mom Dollie Settle!! Shes a very loving person! She’s has been always there 100% for her family and friends. She is my mother and my best friend. She is beautiful inside and out no doubt but I think this would make her feel soo much better about herself. Love you momma : )
Dollie is not my biological mom but she is my 2nd mommy. She would do anything for me and Im not even her own daughter. She never does anything for herself because she always puts others first. I think that this would be great for Dollie. She deserves something that is all for her!! I love you Dollie Sue Settle!
Lola and Leslie are so lucky to have Dollie as a mom. She is so sweet and caring. She always has her girls and grandkids best interest at heart. Dollie is a beautiful woman but needs to be pampered by this makeover! No better candidate for this makeover!!! Happy Mothers Day Dollie!!!
I THINK IF ANYONE DESERVES TO WIN THIS CONTEST DOLLIE DOES. SHE IS A VERY SPECIAL PERSON WITH A LOT OF LOVE IN HER HEART! SHE DESERVES TO GET SOMETHING FOR HERSELF ALWAYS HELPING OTHERS.
WHAT A MOTHERS DAY GIFT THAT WOULD BE!
I’ve met Dolly a couple times and she has always been very sweet and gracious to me. I am a friend of her daughter Lola, but feel I am also her friend as well. I hope that she gets to do this because she is very deserving and would never do it for herself. Dolly, I hope you have a great Mother’s Day! You are truly a great lady.
It is obvious based on everyones responses that no one deserves this more than Dollie! I agree 100 percent. She takes wonderful care of her family. She has a great heart and an even greater personality to match. Love you Dollie Sue!
I vote Dollie ALL THE WAYY!!! we love you
Dollie is my little sister. She is a loving and kind person and a wonderful Mother and friend and an even better Sister. We have a wonderful mother that taught us well how to be a good Mom. Dollie lives her life to take care of others and she so deserves to be taken care of and pampered. She probably doesn’t think that because she is also humble. I hope that you can see from the comments that she has touched many lives. Just to testify to her kindness. We were at a family birthday party and a young mother was there who was very stressed because her baby was not feeling well and she wasn’t sure what to do. Everyone offered advise but as the young woman left the party I saw my sister follow her out and hand her some money to go to the pharmacy and get some medicine for her baby. She does acts of kindness like this all the time. I love her and hope that she can have a chance to be treated special because she truly is special.
I have never had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Dollie, but I have heard wonderful things about her.
I know she has raised a wonderful daughter(s) who wants nothing but the best for her mother! I too hope she wins this make over…she certainly deserves it!
Very deserving.
Dollie is a very sweet person. You will not find anyone with a bigger heart!!!! She will help anyone that needs it! No question ask!!! She is my sister in law. But, I feel like she is my sister! If anyone deserves a makeover it’s Dollie!!! We all love her she is the best!!!
