To Mark, Ray and your sweet familiesI was so sorry to hear about this great loss. Doris was always a bright light when I would call the shop she would answer the phone and you could feel her smile through the line. She was always asking about my family and I often thought that she must have been a sweet presence in Skip's life when he was young growing up with Ray. Those two are together now and I am sure they are happy to see each other again and we will all be together again one day.

Love and prayers to all of you!
