She will be deeply missed by those who knew her.

She is preceded in death by her parents; her loving husband of 54 years, Royce; son-in-law, Bob Furrey and her brother, Paul Brower Sr. Doris is survived by her children, Sheila Furrey and Dennis (Patti) Spitler; grandchildren, Lori (Scott) Trunck, Bob Furrey Jr., Christopher Spitler, and Nicole (Marcus) Vance; great-grandchildren, Hunter and Hayden Trunck, Tiara and Anthony Furrey and Cooper and Finley Vance; her sisters, Evelyn Musselman and Lois (Charles) Spitler, along with her close special friend, Lynn Riley.

A visitation will be held for Doris on Wednesday, November 16, 2022, at Preble Memory Gardens Funeral Center from 11:00am to 1:00pm, with funeral services starting at 1:00pm with Pastor Bryon Gevedon officiating.
