Doris was my light at the beginning of every Monday morning. She was there to listen and to teach. I loved her embraces at the end of every session. We were joined together by a very special person who I'll always be grateful to for bringing Doris into my life. She had a way of making you feel uncondtionally loved and I will always remember our last words. She helped me to see who I am and not to be ashamed of it. I love her and will light a candle in her honor. Goodbye, Doris, you will be a treasure in my heart forever.

Doris was the turning point in my young life. Of all people, she believed in me and imbued me with a sense of confidence and hope. I wish that I was in Florida, so that I could honor her by attending her funeral. I am crying as I write this. Doris, you were so very important to me, and I don't even know if you knew it. May you be a continued inspiration to all who knew you.
