We received word this morning that Dottie Rambo was killed last night in a tour bus accident. Dottie was scheduled to appear at North Richland Hills, Texas at the Fountain Of Life Church at 10:30 AM with her dear friends Lulu Roman and Naomi Sego this morning, so we are assuming she was on route to Texas when the accident occurred.
We will post more info whrn it is received. Please be in prayer for the family at this time.

Dottie Rambo touched so many lives - including mine. My prayers go out to Dottie's family, Larry and his family, and to everyone who is mourning for Dottie right now. But, as much as it hurts to lose her - can you just imagine the party that she is having with Jesus about now? I can see her sitting on His lap singing to him. What a celebration there was in heaven when Dottie Rambo came to perform...!

Dottie Rambo is one of the most beautiful people I've ever come in contact with. I received a call a few hours ago relaying this message and my heart is broken, but also I'm happy to say she is now with her heavenly father that she has faithfully served for so many years. I had the honor of sharing the stage w/ dottie last year with my group and it was the highlight of my career. She will forever be my hero.
We love you Dottie! And we'll be praying for the family and Larry.

What a hole she leaves in the SGM community. My prayers are with the families involved in this tragedy. I am so glad that I did get to see her once in person. That makes that time even more special. May God heal the injured & comfort them at this time.God is good all the time & all the time God is good.

Dottie Rambo, was the very best of the best in songwriters. I have sung many of her songs over the years. I have always said to everybody that she was my favorite songwriter. When I worked with the Stamps Quartet, back in the 1970's, The Rambos, Oak Ridge Boys and the Stamps Quartet traveled together doing concerts and presenting the drama "The Three Nails". Prior to that time, I had known the Rambos from the northern Kentucky, and Southern Indiana
area. Dottie had the most unique voice there has ever been in gospel music. It was great. My wife and I will sorely miss the great talent of this wonderful Lady of God. May God be with Reba and the family. We offer our prayers and condolences to the entire family.

Dottie is one lady that will be deeply missed! She was so beautiful from the inside out and quite a talented songwriter at best. What a legacy she is leaving to the SG industry and to the world! Her family will be in my prayers.Amazed in His presence and humbled by His great love!
