Doris Mitchell Memoriam



DORIS M. MITCHELL
July 12, 1921-January 8, 2012

In Loving Memory of Our Mother and Grandmother, Doris M. Mitchell. A long- time resident of Ho-Ho-Kus, N.J. she passed away one year ago in Naples, Florida.
It is said that a mother hold their children's hands for a short while, but their hearts forever. She is the one person who has always loved you unconditionally your entire life. A mother's love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible.
"Your Mother is always with you. She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street. She's the smell of certain foods you remember, flowers you pick and perfume that she wore. She's the cool hand on your brow when you're not feeling well. She's the colors of a rainbow. She is Christmas morning. She's the place you came from, your first home, and she's the map you follow with every step you take. Nothing on earth can separate you. Not time, not space...not even death!"

Love always, your son, Bruce, daughter-in-law, JoAnn & granddaughters, Christine and Caroline.
