Read MoreDoreen always loved her flowers and was very much one of the most delightful gardners I have ever met, she spent hours and labor in her garden and it was
always a delight to see, she also gave bulbs to me specifically, Dahlias, I love her for that and always will. May her heart and soul fly with angels always at her back. Love you, Lynda

Kari,
Thank you for sharing your beautiful pictures. Although I never met your mother, I appreciated hearing about her and all the love she shared with human and furry family over the years. You are a fantastic role model for us, as she was to you.

Dearest Kari,
Tom and I were so sorry to hear that your mom had passed away. Please know you have our deepest sympathy and prayers. I know how painful it is to lose your mom. Find comfort in years of wonderful memories and knowing she is surrounded by beauty and love beyond what we can even understand.

I met Doreen only twice, the last time only one week before she passed away. She was a beautiful woman with a delightful sense of humor and a quick mind. I enjoyed our short visit so much and was so impressed with her love of life and her knowledge. As long as there are those that remember us,our stories and love, we are never really gone. Doreen will be with you and your family forever! - Marvilla

It was my privilege to assist in a small way in her care here in Anchorage, and to spend time with her as her life here came to a close. I am blessed for having known...

Not everyone can say that they had 'two' true mother however I was blessed with these incredible ladies. Mommy Donna inspired me to explore every facet of life and taking risks only meant being open for my dreams. Mom Doreen enable me to heal and be a friend before becoming a mother.

When Mom Doreen passed recently, she was concerned that my father wouldn't greet her in Heaven because he'd...
