I am hoping someone can help me find my sign
Someone stole it from my shop which I closed in December. It’s very sentimental to me. My father and I built this business together and of course, our signs as he was a sign maker for almost 40 years.  all of his kids grew up working in the sign shop or rental properties and I definitely took after him learning how to make things, build things and work hard!
Although it’s almost been a year and a half since he passed and I had had a major surgery I still miss him daily. This just breaks my heart and I would ask no questions if I could get it back.
It was very hard to even close the store, but it was even harder to go in there and not be there with him
If anybody has any information, I would really appreciate it, and it would be confidential
Thank you!

What people say
Dotties in Houston is a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth. This gelateria, coffee shop, and gelato shop offers a wide variety of delicious treats that will satisfy any craving. Inspired by Dorothy Grandinetti, who always had room for something sweet, Dotties Gelato serves up some of the best gelato and Italian ice in town. Their coffee is also top-notch and pairs perfectly with their desserts.
One thing that sets Dotties apart from other dessert shops is their commitment to quality ingredients. They use only the freshest and highest-quality ingredients to create their gelato and Italian ice flavors. And if you're looking for something boozy, be sure to try their Cranberry Cosmo Italian ice (for those 21 and up).
Dotties also has a cozy patio where you can enjoy your treats while soaking up the beautiful Houston weather. Furry friends are welcome too! And if you're a fan of craft soda, be sure to check out their new flavors of Boots craft soda.
Overall, Dotties is a great spot for anyone looking for a little sweetness in their day. With friendly staff and delicious treats, it's no wonder why this place has become a local favorite.
