Aunt Doris is one lady that I will never forget. She became my Aunt through marriage and she always made me feel like part of the family and I was always her Niece. She was Kind and Loving and a very special person that I was proud to know and to call her my Aunt. I will always miss you and Love you Aunt Doris.

Sending condolences to the family of Doris. She was such a wonderful woman. I remember the wonderful time we had when we visited her and Al in Florida. I am sure Willie was there to greet her. God Bless you Doris
