ed Him to lead her ever since. She provided countless acts of love and service, visiting the sick, the elderly, and shut-ins, bringing food, homemade flower bouquets, and encouragement to many. She also befriended young students at Indiana School for the Blind, bringing many home for meals and holiday gatherings - and a few remained lifelong friends. In community service, Dove served in such venues as the Indianapolis Symphony, Junior League, and Stansfield Circle, a docent (tour guide) at the Indianapolis Art Museum, and volunteer Chaplain at Methodist Hospital. She also became a Director (board member) of charitable foundations, The West Foundation and Westwood Endowment. For downtime, she enjoyed reading, sketching, calligraphy, and writing poetry. Dovey loved music and sang in productions with IU drama, Lambs Club of Indianapolis, church services, and even in her kitchen! She loved cooking for others, spreading joy via "bringing people together" in her home. God has rewarded Dovey with his gift of Eternal Life, in our heavenly home with all fellow believers! Dove was preceded in death by brother Chuck Gleason, husband Dick, and son Brad - and is survived by sons Hal and Mike West, daughter Deborah Davis, plus 8 grandkids, 6 great grandkids, and extended family. A service will be held at 2:15 p.m., on Saturday, November 24, 2018 at Tabernacle Presbyterian Church, 418 E 34th St, Indianapolis, IN 46205, with visitation from noon.
