Some 400 people showed up for Rosemary Dodd's "family reunion." Her friends, family and fellow Girl Scouts gathered Tuesday to honor her as the Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia 2012 Woman of Distinction. Julia Cromartie, Dodd's friend and "little sister," praised her ability to adopt strangers, making them feel part of her family.
