She was the daughter of William Monroe Marchant and Fanny Mae (Kelley) Marchant.

She was an employee of the Bartlesville Examiner-Enterprise as a Graphics Designer, retiring in 1998 after 20+ years of service. Dot enjoyed sewing and family remembers she "fixed a lot of pants". She also enjoyed crafting and loved to write. She was very involved with Pinewood Derby cars for her son, Bill. She was the "handyman" of the house. Other things that brought her enjoyment were yard work and softball slow pitch where she pitched. However, her husband, Jerry, was the love of her life and it was special to her when her entire family gathered around.
