She was a loving, generous woman! She opened her arms to everyone and her kind-heartedness was evident each time we saw her. Those family gatherings she put together were such a treat. She was a delightful lady who will be missed terribly. Our sadness at her passing is heightened by our inability to be at home to say goodbye. To all the Barrons, please know that Aunt Doris, and all of you are in our prayers.

I was so very sorry to hear about Aunt Doris. She was a wonderful, kind and gentle woman. I am so glad my girls and I got to spend a little time with you both last year. I have so many found memories of spending time in your home in Quincy when I was a child. God Bless you all.
Much love,
Pat, Katelyn and Meagan
