WOW, I'm shocked to hear the passing of Doris. I knew here at Hurlbut Field when we were still the 16th Supply Squadron. Doris was the most lovable person and the most patient person I've known. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family at this time of loss.

This is so surreal, Mom I'll always be your "little girl" as you would always say. You shares so much with me because you trusted me and I did the same. I will miss you staying with me when you and your "road-dawg" Georgia would come to visit. I'm glad that you brought in New Year's in with me (although we both fell asleep at 9:30). Thank you for accepting me as your 2nd daughter because we all know that Lisa is number 1. I miss you already but I know that GOD has HIS arms around you. My love for you will NEVER end Mom.....
