Dorothy Jean "Dot" Womack
Dorothy Jean "Dot" Womack, age 82, of McDonald, Tennessee, passed away peacefully on July 7, 2025.
She was born July 1, 1943, in Knoxville, to Lois (Tuggle) Williams and Nat Williams.
Dot met the love of her life, Allen, while attending UTK. They were married nearly 63 years and built a life centered on faith, family, and service. She worked as a homemaker and part-time at UTC.
A longtime member of East Ridge Church of Christ, Dot lived out her faith through quiet acts of service. For over 30 years, she made and distributed dresses for children on mission trips to Nicaragua and Panama.
Dot was an avid tennis player, a skilled seamstress, and a licensed pilot who loved to fly. She also enjoyed reading and found her greatest joy in spending time with her family.

She was preceded in death by her beloved son Daniel Womack; her parents, Lois and Nat Williams; and brothers Wesley and Jack Williams. She also leaves behind special friends Karen Davenport and Robert Mallett who are extended family.
