Dear Nancy and family,
I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. I so remember her when she worked at Anthony Jr. High. I always liked her friendly smile and her love of us crazy, high energy kids. My heart goes out to you all, what a loss.
Blessings, Betsy Hork

Cliff and family,

We're so sorry to hear Doris passed on. We have so many good memories of Doris. She had a beautiful smile and such a positive attitude. She always welcomed us over to visit when we traveled from AZ to Mn. That meant so much. Just want to let you know we're thinking of you and keeping all of you in our thoughts and prayers.

Take care,
Kathleen, Mark, Eric, Kelly and Lisa

In Loving Memory of Doris.

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered “come to me.” With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.

We are all so sorry for your loss. Doris was such a special person to so many people. The world won't be the same without her.

God Bless you all,

Kassie Hooker and family

I was very saddened to hear that Doris passed away. She was always such a kind hearted person. I felt comfortable in her presence, every time we met. She was truely a good friend. I hope you can find the peace and comfort knowing she is resting now and enjoying her new life surrounded by memories and love from her family. Stay strong, my condolences,
Joy
