Doris was a great individual who cared a lot for others. Working with her as my assistant manager was great. My prayers to her family.

I would like to express my condolences to the family and friends of Doris Yzaguirre. These can be difficult times, however, comfort can be found in God's Word the Bible. There we find what our heavenly Father will do at Isa.25:8, and how we have the possibility of being reunited with our loved ones on a paradise earth at Ps.37:10,29.
