Every time I saw Doris she had a joke. She always had a smile and and easy laugh. I got to know her in painting classes, and in church. I loved her positive attitude, it seemed like no matter what. She was a gift and will be missed.

I remember your mom, my Aunt Doris, as kind, friendly, enterprising, resiliant, creative and with a gift of humor. She always gave you the feeling that she had room for everyone. She made the world a better place and I'm grateful to have know her. Sending prayers & Love, Julie
