I had often thought of Doris. I was a hair stylist in Tatnick Square and did her hair for years. When I stopped to raise my twins she came to the house weekly. She was a amazing woman. I googled to locate her. My condolences to her children an family

Mike, Marie and Denise, I am so very sorry to hear of your mom's passing. Her and Al's Saturday night card games with my parents (with the accompanying banter), her always sunny smile and glass half full outlook, have certainly left me with a number of indelible memories. She will certainly be missed greatly. Tracy and I send our sincere thoughts and prayers as you celebrate your mom's remarkable life.
