Our thoughts, prayers and deepest condolences go out to the family of Doris Faith. We met Bob and Doris more than 15 years ago through the Land Of Lincoln Antique Tractor and Engine Club. We have a lot of wonderful memories with them at the many antique tractor shows we went to. Doris was a sweet and kind woman, and always ready to help with tractor shows and the meetings. She always had a wonderful smile and a friendly "Hello....How are you?!!" I was amazed by her "youthful appearance, energy and joy, as she helped Bob with the unloading and loading of their tractors on their trailer. To me she was the Heart and Soul of the tractor club, and stood right beside Bob to share their mutual love for the old "iron horses".... She will be missed.... May God Bless all of you and comfort you during this difficult time....
