Susan, Linda and David, Just want to say how perfect the service was for your mom. I know it is just what she wanted. You were such a supportive family to each other. I hope God's blessing and your mom's sunny spirit shine down on you.

Susie, Linda and David ~ I was so saddened to hear of your Mom's passing. She and my Mom were such faithful longtime friends. I started to think about all the wonderful memories we had growing up and vacationing at Surrey Lake together. Your family was such a big part of my life for so many years. I look forward to seeing you Saturday and celebrating Doris' life. Much love, Jill Hallberg Brandt

Your Mom was simply the best! Always sweet & cheerful. She was a joy to be around. Also the way she supported my Mom Joan, as she battled Alzheimer's meant the world to me. I already miss the lunches & dinners that we shared over the years.

So sorry to hear of Doris' passing. She was simply a wonderful woman. The way she continued her friendship with my Mom Joan when she was battling Alzheimer's meant the world to me. I will miss our many lunches & dinners together but cherish the happy memories.

Doris was a neighbor of ours. We miss her already. She was the first person to visit with us and welcome us to the neighborhood last summer. We enjoyed talking with her on her afternoon walks. She was a lovely lady.

Linda, Susan and David, I am so sorry for your loss. My mother, Jane Renard, always spoke so fondly of your mother. It is difficult to lose parents but what helps with the pain is knowing they are in a wonderful place and will always be in your heart. May God bring you peace and comfort. Jan Renard Murphy
